Change the color in the iCal app and the color change will follow on the MM calendar.

Great - It worked. Thanks
But I still have the issue with my birthday calendar subscrption that I have on my iCal (taking into account birth dates of my address book) showing up on my me.com but does not on my iPhone even through I have activated the MM account and activated everything. My iPhone just shows the defaut birthday cal (under other) on which you cannot modify the color! But does not show up my subscription birthday calendar.
Is the beta version supporting subscribtion calendars?

Edit:
The subscribtion calendars will not show up on the iPhone. Confirmed during a chat with MM support.
The only work around is the following:
1- Go to iCal and pubish you birthday subscribtion calendar.
2- When the message pop up do not forget to select mobileme in the drop down list and then another message is coming...click send a message
3- Go to your iPhone and click the link on the message you sent to yourself. It will generate a subscribtion calendar...but not under mobile me.
I then beleive you can change the color on iCal and it will on your iPhone
Personnally i do not like that work around as I am OCD and I also paid for MM...I want the subscribtion calendar to be part of my MobileMe account on my iPhone + it means you need to deselect the default birtdhday calendar on the iPhone (under Other section) so once you do so and select "show all selected calendar" on the top it will show the number of calendar displayed like for instance "3 calendars or 4 calendars"...I dont like it and want it to show "all calendars" displayed.
If there was a way to delete that default iOS4 birthday calendar or change its color it would work for me but it is not possible...How ridiculous is that. C'mon Apple...!!!

From MM news website:
Works on iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac
The MobileMe Calendar beta uses the CalDAV standard so you can view and edit your calendars using the built-in calendar applications on your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac.

OK it is CalDAV now but what does it change. When i creating an event on either iCal, iPhone or me.com cal it would sync the other 2...what is the big change? Can someone explain what could not be done before and can be done since the beta is out?

At http://www.me.com you can SHARE your calendars. You could not do this before.
