With the cell-phones and other portable devices we will likely see a resurgence of web safe colors in my opinion but it would be short lived at best as the technology is moving fast enough that TFT screens will soon be available in even low-end color phones as they are now for PDAs. I guess the final frontier for this will be in the form of watches that can access the net and work with a wireless ear bud or something for voice control/communication.
Though my thoughts are why not have your main site use high color graphics and then build WAP pages that for the site?
