Screen blue color

I've seen pics of the MM screen on blue color. Even the one showing the new ipod adapter in 1 of the threads (I think form the midcity eng.).
Is there a way to change the display to that color, or that's the color on the canadian/european models?
Please advise
Thanks

I saw that same photo and thought, "I'd pay money to change that damn brown color." Right not, I keep my MM display on the night setting - it just looks better to me. But not as good as that blue color.

How do you mean blue color? There is a way to change the diplay colors to day or night mode. Night mode is dark bluish or you can keep the settings in automatic , which means in day you will have brownish brighter display and at night dark bluish. In MM , go to SYSTEM , then DISPLAY,

It looks to me like it is just a bad pic of the night view.

It's not. Night display has different degrees of gray.
I've seen it before in edmund's website too.

I could be wrong, but I believe that is the grey. I think that it just looks blue in the picture because of the lighting.

Here are some more pics. Definitely not the current night display.
It matches much more

Those pictures are taken in Night mode but the camera they use has a filter on it. This is what gives it that "blue" color.
