Hi,

uzbl is horribly large, not due to it's ownn size but the number of additions it needs.

I think web browsers are like window managers and file managers - you just have to try them all.
Just to find the one thats best for you. 8)

This one looks good for netbooks.

Woosh Browser

Woosh is a minimalistic browser starting up very fast and optimised for small screens.
It runs very well on the Neo Freerunner as well as on any netbook like the Acer One or Asus eeePC.

Our mission with the Usejump is to make this possible with the power of internet and technologies that we have in the hand, but is not possible without you as someone how believe in the spirit of open access to information for anyone, we need you, be there for everyone of us.
