Dillo would be the smallest but Opera would be the best for features per KB of RAM.
I would personally use Dillo because it just seems more suited to the environment and would fulfill it's purpose (looking up documentation) without crippling the system.
If you wanted to just browse the internet though I think Opera or Chrome would both be good choices. Especially if you used a minimal GUI.

Something like uzbl[1] or conkeror[2] maybe, i.e. a very small wrapper around the rendering engine (can't think of anything beyond Webkit or Gecko that wouldn't completely annoy users).

PandaBoard...if you can get one. http://www.pandaboard.org
If it's anything like the BeagleBoard, just place an order for a single unit (even though DigiKey likely lists 0 in stock), and you'll get one fairly quickly (probably faster than the 4+ weeks for a SheevaPlug).
I guess they just have to get armhf (hard-floating point) running on, and they would get even better speeds.
The folks at http://powerdeveloper.org, and others are doing this transition now. (Proud owner of Efika MX smart top / smart book). Can't wait for the Raspberry too!

PoE would make it AMAZING. Connect it to HDMI, install Linux, and you now have an awesome set-top box capable of very high quality performance.

This is such a beautiful little project. The more advanced hardware gets, the more kids (and people interested in learning) lose sense of the raw elements. Cool idea raspberry pi.
This seems like a very low power way to manage network access to a small cluster of external hard drives.
What would you run und such a little thing?
I imagine Enlightenment E17 + vim for some development.. now for a browser that doesn't eat memory for breakfast... opera? Certainly not Firefox or Chrome.
