Hey Conseo,

Confirmed, looks good.  http://zelea.com/project/votorola/home.html

There's something else now that's less serious, but I guess still a
bug.  As I increase my preferred font size, there's a point (for me 22
in Firefox) where the track dots start looking funny.  They get
chopped in half.  Larger still and they disappear.  Please confirm.

I still see the cursor glitch too.  I wouldn't class this as a bug, so
there's no urgency to fix it:

Also (another minor thing, not urgent) the top HUD seems too high
above the track.  HUD bottom should just touch track top when cursor
is at bottom of its range.

Also (again minor) the font styling of the top HUD seems to differ
between left and right.  Right looks smaller, or more condensed, or
something.  Or maybe it's just the bold weight on the left mnemonic
that makes me a little cross-eyed (normal face is maybe cleaner here).

Just little things, these last three.
