If ditching the ScriptManager is your aim, exposing the page method is still a good option, just use javascript that doesn’t rely on the ScriptManager js libraries.
I like the solution proposed in the linked page, but it might be a too wide open though. Maybe you want to create a strongly typed and controlled PageMethod for any/all Session items that you want to allow access to. That way you can’t access some secret Session value accidentally.
Also, I think you need to tag the PageMethod with
VB
C#
as I don’t think EnableSession is on by default.
