If it were text only, you might make it. Just writing out text in different
sizes and attributes (bold, italic, etc...) and reading and parsing simple
HTML is tough enough.

The image requirement is the killer. Just managing JPG and GIF would require
more code and processor speed than the PIC24 (I think) can offer. I would
look at ARM processors.

Actually, what I would do is just supply an old Palm Pilot with a browser
program. You can get IIIxe's for nothing and I know there are browsers for
it, although I never used one. I did use Plucker to view content offline and
it worked quite well within the constraints of the screen.
