I would say you shouldn't ignore the issue, but you don't need to limit 
yourself either. If a site doesn't look as good under the limited 
spectrum, so what. If, however, it looks hideous, then maybe it's worth 
making adjustments.

I think this is a lowest common denominator issue.

After the PDAs will come the phones and then the watches. For a while
each of these new screen technologies will not display more than a
limited number of colours.

If you want your site to look as you intended to everybody using these
relatively primitive screens then I can still see a place web-safe
colours.

I'd say it's a myth, unless you are going to limit yourself to 22 colors for some 
reason. 

This article: http://hotwired.lycos.com/webmonkey/00/37/index2a.html was written four 
years ago and still worth reading. Sure raise of PDAs may rise some questions too, 
but...

No, as most users have full high color resolutions.

But if your website is primarily visiited by computers that cant reach high
color levels, then yeah. but otherwise its accessability shoshing over with
design issues.
the web safe color scheme is a good idea, pratical in some situations.

I've never bothered with it.
