As far as big fonts, etc. What if I change the resolution on the Tablet from default 1920x1200 to smaller (that is, to increase the fonts), it won't be enough? I am thinking that if I change the buttons and fonts to larger and the user changes the resolution, then the buttons and fonts will be really huge.

I got my tablet now (delivered yesterday); so I will run this app and see how it looks.
