If anyone is interested in testing and/or helping with this please let me know.
So far we have a server running on the Amazon Cloud that allows access only to the KGS client via VNC. The KGS client starts immediately and is full screen. The next step would be to allow multiple users to access independent versions of the KGS client.
There are free "lite" iOS apps that provide a VNC client, I've tried Mocha VNC Lite on my iPad and that works well. The paid version is $5.99
I am wondering if there is enough interest to keep a server running on Amazon to provide this service.
