Can you provide a link to this? I find it hard to believe that Amazon wouldn't somehow let people know this. I can't find anything in the description. In the comparison chart, it just says web: experimental browser.
Edit: I found a thread on kindleboards. I didn't see it on my first read-through, but the Kindle Touch 3G page does say this:
WebKit-Based Browser
Kindle Touch 3G's experimental web browser is based on WebKit. It's easy to find the information you're looking for right from your Kindle Touch 3G.
Experimental web browsing is available via Wi-Fi.
Here's the thread on kindleboards:

Edited once more to add this from the product page:
A single charge lasts up to two months with wireless off based upon a half-hour of daily reading time. Keep wireless always on and it lasts for up to 3 weeks. Battery life will vary based on wireless usage, such as shopping the Kindle Store, downloading content, and web browsing
(browsing available only in Wi-Fi mode).
