I too have wished for such a VRML-browser, but I haven't seen one yet.

Like most 3D graphics software developers, I think to myself:
how hard could it be to develop such a browser that's good enough
for testing and demo purposes, using the existing VRML parser and
some OpenGL-like library on Windows (perhaps fix-up Mesa for Windows).
Does anyone have an estimate of how hard this is?
Is anyone doing it? need help? volunteer to help?
