I'm pretty sure I noticed it change while flying SFO->JFK. Take off during the day, land at night. It went from the pink/purple color to a dark blue/purple.

Also (being picky), I think the formatting is a little out (eg. the occasional line with only one word in it)

-- should this be a sticky?
The cabin lighting does in fact change, but I don't believe it's automated. Different profiles can be manually selected by the crew, with different coloration for day, night, evening/early morning. They fade into each other, so it's not a jarring change.

Also, don't necessarily need this for the FAQ, but I came across the link for the Recaro seats that VX uses in F:

Just some fun reading. (Delta's about to install them in their new 757 BusinessElite cabins for Int'l only.) Regarding no underseat storage in F, besides the cubbyhole in the armrest, there's some room between the seat and the wall which also fits a messenger bag nicely for the outboard seats.
