That update can be a little freaky... I read the message a few minutes ago, then came back to respond. If you hadn't added the "update", I would have thought I was losing it. :)

Anyway, I don't run large fonts because it's just not compatable with too much stuff out there. If you run into that and still want the font larger on the UT, there's a couple things you can do. One is to set accessability to over-ride the web page's font settings. The other is to change the font size in the UT itself. I haven't tried the latter since I'm already doing the former, but I did notice that it's available.

PS: When you lose the last "le", you make me a man. :)
