Hi Jonathan!

You can install Qtopia (http://qtopia.sourceforge.net) on top of Qt-Embedded, 
which is available for free. Qtopia is Palmtop Environment, designed by 
TrollTech especially for PDA's.
Konqueror/Embedded also runs in this environment, and it's also free.
It's under instant development, you can upgrade it,say, once per year.
So, there are some upgradable "embedded browsers" out there  :-)
