Remote X Session via Browser?

heya,

I'm currently looking for a way to remote into a Linux PC via the browser. That is, a pure browser solution, not something like NX Web Companion that downloads an applet via the browser, and still requires say, an outgoing SSH connection from the client.

For Windows, there's something like ThinVNC:

which basically lets you use any HTML5 browser to remote desktop into a Windows PC. It's coded in Delphi 2010, so I'm not sure how portable it is. However, it's all done purely within the browser.

On the Linux Side, NoMachine is promising NX Web Player:

but there's no word on a release date for that - and it was announced back in 2008 (http://www.nomachine.com/news-read.php?idnews=251).

For commandline only, there's something like Ajaxterm (http://antony.lesuisse.org/software/ajaxterm/), however, I'm looking for something like NX Web Player, but that's already released.

Cheers,
Victor
