Any RDP-like solution for OSX?

Tried looking around, stumbled upon iRAPP and Aqua Connect. Both are closed, commercial, pricey solutions. Both are terribly slow, no comparison to Windows RDP. Anything better around? I don't even mention OSX Lion Screen Sharing - it is basically a VNC, stands no competition.

sure i know about teamviewer. but it's no better than VNC (meaning: it transfers pics of the screen, or parts thereof, not graphic commands), and it does not have SESSIONS (doesn't allow several people to log in and see each his own desktop). it is just 'move my mouse' solution.

iRAPP and Aqua Connect does allow sessions, so is Screen Share built into OSX Lion. They use RDP protocol, but they are TERRIBLY slow, nothing comparable to Windows RDP. And pricey.
