LG VX-8000

Even though CNET review states: "We were pleased that you can change the font size and the backlighting on the external display", I cannot change the font size for anything except for keypad entries. And there appear to be no options whatsoever for external display. Names and numbers coming up on the external display are very, very small. It also does not make sense to me that there is only one size font for directory displays on the internal screen. Has anyone noticed this? Are there any options? (Aside from reading glasses!)
