Narrative:
During final cockpit preparation; a significant amount of attention was paid to the [company] update for verifying performance. This resulted in not trapping an error of arming LNAV instead of our assigned heading on the MCP. That error was trapped as we were calling for taxi; unfortunately correcting that error resulted in me forgetting to call for 'flaps 10' prior to aircraft movement. During the before takeoff checklist the focus during the flaps checklist item became verifying that the fdp flaps matched the FMC setting; instead of verifying flaps 10 on the upper EICAS. The EICAS configuration warning trapped the error as the takeoff roll was started; resulting in a low speed reject. The aircraft cleared the runway; the flaps were set correctly; the takeoff runway or performance change procedure was completed; including the before takeoff checklist; and the subsequent takeoff was completed normally.
