More useful Firefox add-ons: No Squint
Thanks to a tip from Sull86 of the forums, we have another useful Firefox add-on for UMPC users. This one is called No Squint. This clever add-on allows you to zoom to a custom zoom percentage or use buttons on Firefox’s bar to increase/decrease the font size on the page. This may sound like the already built in font zoom feature in Firefox, however this add-on saves the font zoom that you have chosen to the website that you zoomed into. This is particularly useful for users who would like to increase the font size when browsing on their small UMPC, but require different levels of zoom for several different sites. This link will take you to the add-on page where you can download and have it running after your next Firefox restart.

This is a useful option, but there’s another way that seems to be less hassle to me. Go into Tools / Options / Content / Advanced and set the “Minimum Font Size” to something different. After a bit of experimentation you’ll find the best size for your eyes.
This font size change is universal across all web pages.
