Correct me if I'm wrong but I do not believe that Internet Explorer will allow you to resize text defined with px which is why the em unit became so useful...

Even IE7's zoom feature is not technically changing the size of the text its just enlarging everything in the viewable window.

But with that said, i still tend to use px for text definitions for predictability... a pixel is a pixel... an em can be different under different situations.
