CAT reported this issue, but I only confirmed it while I have two Touch units next to me with clock screensavers showing.

It seems that every 15 minutes or so, the Touch screen blinks. I catch this in the corner of my eye while I am doing something else. 

Can't find original CAT report number.

Could that just be the time changing?

A blink is... what?  Screen does dark and then comes back?  Screen gets brighter and then dimmer?  Is it a thing caused by the backlight or the LCD?

I have a Fab4 just below my monitor at work all day long and I haven't seen this.

Bug: 15648 (possibly)
Description: potential fix for screen flashes during transitions which use Snapshot (Now Playing and Clock updates).  Snapshot calls Framework:draw to draw the current display on a new surface - make sure we don't update animations or use/update the dirty area of the screen for this type of draw as its not drawing onto the hardware surface.

I think this is now fixed - is anyone seeing it still?
