Haven't noticed and I have mine on low. As I understand these things, brightness changes are performed by changing the rate the backlight switches on and off. Low settings might produce a flickering effect seen by some people.

For example, I can't stand to look at a CRT monitor that is 60Hz refresh. 70Hz or more is much easier on my eyes.

I use mine most of the time on "Low" and indeed the flickering is annoying.

It's the way they produce the dithering effect in order to claim 16 million colours from a 6 bit dispay.

Got the same problem over here, just wondered during browsing, asking myself if it has something to do with my eyes.
Then checked the forums... and.. tadaaa.. not my eyes... dammit.
