screensize-dependent interface?

hi,

i wonder if it's possible to adjust the interface of an application according to the given screensize.

what i want to do is this...
design two interfaces - one for 1024x768 and below, one for larger screens.
the differences would include

ui element sizes
label font vs. small system font, etc.
small buttons vs. normal buttons, etc.
maybe icons vs. labels

ui element placement
e.g. more white space on the larger screens' version
maybe radio buttons vs. popups

my idea is to create two nib files, have the app check the current screensize upon startup and select the nib for that size.

is this possible?
and if so: how?

thanx in advance...
