the older model that i've got definitely uses a blueish led which only becomes white-ish in color when brightness is set to higher levels. don't have technical data.

It's frustrating that you can't turn the backlight off altogether to simulate the pre-backlight Kindle experience.

I have a newer Kindle Paperwhite and you can turn the back-lighting completely off.

It looks that way, but if you're in a dark room you can see the light's still actually on.
