A lot of devices uses white as the default font color on the Today screen. It's not a problem as long as the background utilizes a "heavy" color. It does become problematic when using a picture as background because Windows Mobile will reduce the color to something that looks like gray. Thus, reading the Today becomes a strain for the eye.
There is a registry key that can be modified to change the font color to something else than white. This must be done after having modified the background.
In the registry go to HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Color\4. Change the value to "00 00 00 00" for black or "00 00 FF 00" for blue.

what's "registry" and how do you get there? thanks
You can download a free registry editor at http://www.phm.lu/Products/PocketPC/RegEdit/
The registry is a system database that references all systems files for the OS and any application you have installed on your device. If the registry becomes corrupt, it's the entire system that's affected. So you'd better be careful when making changes to it.
