Heres a program which came out on freshmeat two days back. I haven't
tried it myself - just take a look..

description:
wb0 is an SVGAlib Web browser. It's good for practical purposes like
image viewing and viewing Czech texts in unknown encoding; the encoding
is easily user-switchable and reconfigurable (UNICODE-based). Its
graphical features include text grayscaling, resolutions from
320x200x256 to 1600x1200x16777216, Floyd-Steinberg ultra-precise
dithering for all resolutions, and a sophisticated gamma and
colour-balance setting. It can view all PNGs, JFIF/JPEGs, and PCXs, and
most GIFs (no truecolor and no animation). It uses lynx to access Web
pages and for typesetting.

changes:
Initial release.
