None of them have good browsers--Kindle 3, DX, Nook--they're all about the same. They're all slow, and none of them are good for much, frankly. It's all because of the e-ink limitation and the slow processors that power these devices. Having used the Kindles and Nook, I can say that the Nook's browser is a bit more functional, but the Kindle gets points for giving me access to Wikipedia and travel sites over the 3G network. I hardly ever use the browser for anything more than a quick check of my email, though, so it doesn't really matter to me. And really, if web browsing is a big thing for someone, they really ought to be looking at an iPad or other tablet device.

Edit: I should add that, if I were to buy another reader in the near future, it would almost certainly be the Kindle DX. I love my Nook for general reading, but I'd use the DX for business documents and, yes, for traveling.
