A couple of month ago I added firebird (now firefox) to my image. Yes, it took 
28MB. ldd is your friend. You need several libs which are not part of pxes. 
It is possible if you really need the browser on the local machine. But at 
least you also need a kind of kiosk-mode customisation: Like the local 
Display the Browser runs as root, which might be acceptable for a local LAN 
with only special webpages possible. But users tend to break everything, so 
you should disable file dialog et al via xpi stuff. (=a mozilla server might 
be a better, more flexible idea ;-)
