Many use the terms "Internet" and "Web" interchangeably, but they're not. The Web consists of a certain number of HTML servers that are connected to the Internet. There are *lots* of other types of servers, clients and machines connected to the Internet, and the tablets simply don't have the software (and in a few cases the hardware) to connect to them. There are also other software-related activities that haven't been (and probably won't be) ported for the tablets. There's a whole lot more to the Internet than just Web pages and email.
