My favorite font for UI is News Gothic by Bitstream. Incredible legibility 
without the smeariness that Vera Sans, Verdana, and Arial often have. The 
glyphs are crisp and slightly taller most sans-serif fonts for a look that is 
attractive and readable for long periods of time.

Unfortunately, the News Gothic fonts aren't free.
