It's had w3 for quite a while. 'eww' is new.

It's still text-mode though (it will show images inline).

There was a project to integrate webkit into an emacs browser mode but not sure where that stands.

IIRC, w3 was an external program while eww is built entirely in elisp.

w3 is written in ELisp and runs in Emacs http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/w3

w3m is an external program, which Emacs has a wrapper for http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/w3m

My apologies then, since I did not remember correctly. Thank you for enlightening!
