I spent a lot of time trying to figure out a secure way of uploading large (>100 MB) files directly to S3 from the browser. I couldn't figure out a good way to use a javascript solution because of the issue of needing access to the AWS secret key.
I ended up using a java applet called jumploader to get the job done, but I always wondered if I gave up too soon and there really is a good way to do this from the browser.
