http://www.taconuts.org/...es/2000/dec/3/page1.php has a very nice article on modding your optical mice for diffrent leds(this one ofcuses on blue leds)
i've done this mod on my mouse, it worked rathe well, and its rather original... from the 'comments' section of that very article...
"The reason the manufactures use red LEDs is because the red light increases the contrast of the surface it is lighting up. This makes the simple little camera in the mouse see changes in the surface better, therefore causing the responsiveness to be normal. Find some clear red plastic and look around your surroundings with it, and you should see more contrast."
ive used a variety of colors, including, green, all worked fine.
