http://www.netsurf-browser.org/about/

The NetSurf browser:
Can run on frame buffer only devices -
Supports physical keyboards -
Uses OpenSSL v-1.0.0 - - which is certainly new enough to handle TLS-1.2 + elliptical curve cryptography + per session keys (those things that test site expects).
There was, in that conversation, a report about accented character handling in the frame buffer driver -
Probably a minor problem compared to getting all of the security fixes.

It is reported to run in 64Mbyte (or less) - so it might even work on the older keyboard Kindles.
