Most probably I would go for Reflex Blue, it's dark enough not to be obtrusive when reading. Keep in mind that red color means danger and human eye&brain company is especially tuned to look for it.
Oh, and please, don't do the same mistake as many companies, eReader surface should be anything but reflexive - you don't want to reflex light to user's eyes and eReaders will be held all the time when used, reflexive surface looks much worse with all those fingerprints. Gleamless surface would fare much better. I am sure you know that, practicaly anyone should know that, but still there are tons of devices in computer industry released every month with reflexive surface.
Dear pkovak and Griffonwing:

I like Griffonwing and appreciate his need for slate blue. BUT... I am thinking also that on plastic it may be better to go one shade lighter... dark but still shows some blue tint. Colors seem to show darker on plastic.

Thoughts?? I will check out 286 and look at 356 for the green.

Ladies, would love to hear your thoughts also!!
