but today at a coffeeshop (local Dunkin Donuts) i couldn't use the wifi because the K3's built-in browser wouldn't redirect properly to their "click to agree" page -- it just hung.
it occurred to me that having a text browser available at the kindle's shell prompt might be handy at times like that. i don't know that it would have worked today, but it might have.
so: are there any pre-built text browsers available? (if there's a big archive of native kindle binaries somewhere, i guess this would be a good time for me to learn about it.)

Hmm...
Your thread title mentions text based **WEB** browsers but the post keeps mentioning text browsers.
Such as plain text files.
on a K3? Yup, got that:

I am pretty sure links and w3m have been built for the kindles (although I don't recall for which models).
You'll have to search for them (or look them up).
