I know that I was hoping that web browsing *would* be available on a Kindle 3G Touch. I don't have a smartphone or any other device with a data plan, so the ability to be able to check email when traveling might've gotten me to buy a new Kindle just for that purpose.

I wish they'd clear this up. Seems a lot of CS reps are saying you can use the 3G to browse like always (or so people are saying over on Kindleboards), but that changed wording leads me to believe otherwise. I was wondering if Amazon would do something like this for the new touch model, simply because browsing gets much easier with a touchscreen.
