Yes, specified by the end of the range.

Yes.  You can either add specific split points, or you can lower the split 
threshold based on the size of the table.  For example, if the table size is S 
bytes, and you ideally want to have T tablets, then set the table's split 
threshold to S/T.  These calculations are rarely exact, so I would start high 
on the split threshold, let it split out, see if the number of tablets is ok, 
then lower again if necessary.
