Two things come to my mind:
1) The contrast of the MessagePad screen is temperature-sensitive. If
you did not have it at room temperature prior to turning it on, wait
awhile for it to equilibrate before worrying or taking other action.
2) You may have inadvertently reset the contrast center point by
double-tapping the word 'Contrast' in the Extras drawer. Not likely,
because presumably you would have noticed the warning message that pops
up and requires acknowledgment.
