I would like to work on my new project building Responsive layouts making
use of flexible em-based media queries instead of pixel based.

So, is there any new findings on the subject, or is just as simple as
converting a couple of numbers? (I'm oversimplifying here, but not that
much apparently)
Did you tried this approach, is there anything I should pay attention to?
Kuzeko:
I think that is an excellent move. It allows the people with aging vision to
see things enlarged, here's an example:

Additionally, here is something that helped me -- when converting from pixels
to em simply divide by 16.
For example, an image that is 16 pixels wide is also 1 em wide.
I doubt that. em is a unit relative to the current font size.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Em_%28typography%29 says: "Thus, em
generally means the point size of the font in question." So if for one
particular font size 1em is 16 pixels, for a font twice as big 1em might
be rather about 32 pixels.
