You don't need a browser, to browse B&N titles, using the eink reader I mean; not the kind of browser that lets you check emails and websites. That's part of the presentation layer that comes with the Nook Touch's software or user's interface. You will get the options on the screen and you can touch and get the titles and buy, etc.

I think that's easier for developers because they can control what's being displayed on an online store, like B&N. It is more difficult to provide a true browser for Internet, giving the case modern websites have not been designed for eink readers.
