It works!

I had tried accessing the built-in browser but that just told me I needed to set up a WiFi connection. It hadn't occurred to me that the store would be different.

I have a dummy "user" record in the SQLite database, so it can't actually connect to the store (perfect!) but I can use the browser for a quick Google or Wikipedia lookup, which is all I wanted.

The browser itself is rather better than I'd hoped. Not as easy to read as it could be at the default zoom level (especially coloured text which comes out grey) but the functionality is there.

Thanks for the tip.

Cheers,
Daniel.
