If you are interested in commercial products here are two that I know of:

Lynx Software has a product called 3270/X that currently runs under SCO
Open Desktop, but they are intending to port to other platforms.  You
could contact Jerry Anderson at 800-336-LYNX or (better yet)
uunet!lynxwwt!info.

I also recently read about a product called IOC3270-S from I/O Concepts
that you may want to investigate.  I/O Concepts Inc. is in Seattle, WA; 
you can reach them at (206) 286-7406.

I'm not affiliated with either company, just interested in 3270 emulation
for X.  I'd be interested in hearing about others.
