I have the same problem here; I noticed that it works if I manually start the tablet-browser-demon service (first you have to become root). Strange since I did not change anything related to init.

I had a similar problem a couple months back. Turned out that after removing a couple of newly installed apps (I wish I could remember what they were and I'm not sure if I kept notes), the browser functionality returned.

I too had the problem prior to the last update...
Ended up reflashing...

Strange...

If anybody has a solution for this, it would be greatly appreciated, I don't fancy reflashing my n800 again!

I can see that the service is actually enabled; for some reason it's not starting anymore. I remember it just happened after installing some apps; after that, I tried to remove the apps, but the problem persisted. I don't have anything outside of the extras installed.
I remember I removed the tablet tutorial from the app manager.

I've had this problem in the past.

I started tablet-browser-daemon manually with "/etc/init.d/tablet-browser-daemon start" or through control panel applet. Eventually problem went away. Don't know what caused it or what fixed it.

You don't happen to use the control panel services applet to disable/reenable tablet-browser-daemon did you? If you did, make sure you get tablet-browser-daemon to start at S99 in rc2.d.

I want to echo this, the same exact thing happened to me. I accidentally disabled the tablet-browser-daemon, then reenabled it. The new service entry was set to K20. After moving it to S99 (using update-rc.d from the command line, to make sure that every run level was updated simultaneously) and rebooting, everything worked fine.

This is a pretty serious bug with the control panel services applet, in my opinion.
