Is there a way to setup a web browser on my Roku?

Why would you want to? Just mirror your screen from your device.

Did not know that you could mirror on Roku 3 (have 2 of them)
How is this done? What app?

On my Fire Tv's, I sideloaded Firefox in order to download xbmc files etc.

I bought a Roku 3 last night at Walmart for $85.50. I haven't hooked it up yet but am very interested in the mirror thing also.

Mirroring is fine for browsing, but say I want to watch an episode of Better Call Saul from the AMC website (only free *legal* place I found to get it). When you mirror it significantly decreases the quality and gets all jumpy to the point it's unwatchable.

Try Plex It. It's a feature in Plex. You can browse to different videos on your PC and hit the Plex It bookmarklet(just like a bookmark on your toolbar, but serves a different function) and it will be added to your Plex queue. This will allow you to open Plex on the Roku and play it from there. It has worked for most network sites I've tried.
