Hi,
I've just installed the latest version and could not miss the fact that now the default system fonts are changed. While this may not be such a bad idea, please bare in mind that you need to make this change at least optional, because this directly affects the usabillity of the device. What I'm talking about is the fact that when dealing with a device with display constraints like the N900, a lot of user interface strings are carefully crafted to fit on the screen into the desired available space and changing the system font, may or may not affect this. In this particular case the new font is slightly wider and thus some strings do not fit.

Besides that the theme is really great! :-) and I have a feeling that this slowly becomes much more than a theme and rather starts to be a way of customizing the UI in general - transitions, fonts and why not icons ...
