Tan and hard is always better, but if frost is coming, at least the tan 
ones are edible.  If they are still on a dead vine, I'd give them another 
week or so to see if they harden up, unless you are expecting one of those 
MN frosts!

BTW, glad to hear that other PA folks are having low yields with Pingtung 
(sp?) eggplant -- I grew them this year for the first time and I'm getting 
very little.  Usually, my eggplant explode in August, but I'm getting very 
few.  Will keep the seed for next year and try again since everyone is 
having problems.
