'Mode' word is more related with software.
Does it mean Sprinter could cancel zx-gigascreen's blinking only using software methods?

It mean Sprinter can has one more Pentagon Mode of Spectrum Configuration. Or a new port of old Pentagon Mode which will be switching blinking (on/off).
Canceling zx-gigascreen's blinking could be created using some changing of internal logic firmware.

I realize you are busy with other improves, but if it would be possible using some 'software' methods, would be nice to have non_blinking interlace. :-)

What 'software' methods do you suggest?
Sprinter architecture allows to use "software/hardware" methods. It is an original technology.
"Non_blinking interlace" can be created by this technology too.
So, next version of Spectrum Configuration can include this new feature and some others.

Ha-ha. :) Kind of. :)
Anyway - I think it would be interesting feature. Or maybe should I say: VERY interesting.

By the way, I there any possibility to buy a motherboard with the older bios? (With Speccy config in ROM).
I have heard that the newest version has no Spectrum support in Rom, but user has to execute some EXE file.

You can rewrite FlashROM with BIOS 2.12 using www.petersplus.com/support/updates/bios212.zip file. This is "old" BIOS version.
But usage of Spectrum Configuration in BIOS 3.00 more comfortable.

>comfortable.

Why?

PS: I have heard from one of Sprinter users that he 'downgraded' his Sptinter to earlier Bios' version, because it's better for Speccy config... Strange.

New features of Spectrum Configuration (BIOS 3.00)
1. ZXSpectrum+2 Mode.
2. Possibility to load different Spectrum ROM's. For example, original ROM's of current Spectrum clone. Old BIOS 2.12 include one universal set of Spectrum ROM's for all Spectrum modes.
3. Changing any Spectrum modes. Spectrum modes is described in configuration files, which can be changed. For example you can create special mode for each Spectrum program (for each .trd file).

You can see more info about BIOS 3.00 in the attached text file.

I think is possible to use up to 256 colors for zx spectrum games working on them using Sprinter ZX mode. I have read in documentation that you can use high resolution inside Spectrum mode. Anyway you must working on games because them are written for 16 colors only..... Perhaphs games written for 256 colors emulator could run on it!
