Is it realy a colour display ? AFAIR these where B&W LCDs with a blueish backlight - so the dark blue is just 'less' blue due a switched on cell :) The only solution is to select for all used programms fore/background colours that match your need, like black on white whitch should result in light blue on dark blue - but belive me, the readability is poor.
