If you are using ltsp 3.0, your only hope is Netscape Navigator (as local app) available on LTSP website. I tried to use Mozilla Firebird/Pheonix as local app but failed miserably. There are lot of issues of compatibility on library files. You can find it all in the mailing list.
You can use Mozilla Firefox as local app with LTSP 4.0 Sudev, even I feel that running local app may not be worth the efforts, but in my case it was a typical requirement of the customer where LTSP was implemented. Just to compare the two case you pointed out, you need decent CPU power and memory to run Firefox as local app (with Flash plugins and JVM). In my case I found that that running Firefox as local app on a Pentium- 200MHz:32MB RAM was not possible. But the same worked well when the browser was running on the server. For local app PII 300MHz, 64MB or 128MB worked very well.
