I'd argue that a web-based POS would suck. Most POS Users are non-technical, and so it would be hard for them to use, for example, the print option from the browser (because of the print dialog) instead a custom print option of a native app. Even having a page on the bookmarks can be hard for some users (I am saying this because I've seen it happen).
Besides, most of POS systems need to communicate with a display (the thing that shows the price) and other devices (money drawer, etc), so I can't see how you would accomplish that from a web page.
Of course, if you don't need this features and/or are doing the thing as an experiment, just ignore my post :)
