Hi Hiddenevil.

FYI, Firefox on Amiga is a little while off, but progress has been made. There is a quite substantial  bounty for it, which currently stands at $10,418.02 USD.

We do have some modern web browsers being worked on. Take a look:
Origyn Web Browser
Sputnik
Traveller

Please note that all three are WIP, and are not designed to run on OS 3.x but a port is certainly a possibility.

@Hiddenevil

If you're looking to connect your A1200 to the Internet, either one of these should suffice:

Amiga PCMCIA Network Card MKIII, £29.99 from amigakit.com
X-Surf 3CC Network Card, £74.99 from amigakit.com
