An actual BLUE led (480nm) is available from Siemens.  The
part number is LDB5410.  It has a 16 degree viewing angle and
6.0 mcd luminous intensity @ 20ma.

The data book lists their head office at:
	Optoelectronics Division
	19000 Homestead Road
	Cupertino, CA 95014
	(408) 257-7910

I have not used the device, just remembered seeing it in the data book.
