Are you getting a black screen? If that is the problem launch Firefox, then near the clock there will be a 4 arrow icon, click it and select "Stretch to fill screen" and restart the tablet. This will correct an issue with Android improperly suggesting Zoom to fill screen for Firefox.

Firefox will have tablet specific look in Firefox 9. It will be in the Android Market around Nov 10th as Firefox beta. https://ianbarlow.wordpress.com/2011/09/30/firefox-for-tablets-lands-in-aurora/
