RemoteTap
RemoteTap is a "Mac Style" remote desktop management solution for Mac's. Watch the screen, listen to audio, control keyboard and mouse of any Mac in your local network. If your router supports UPnP (or, you setup port forwarding manually), RemoteTap works over 3G/EDGE and Internet as well.

This is one of the most indispensible apps for me on my iPod Touch.
It lets me access my home and my Server Macs from on-the-road.
What makes this app so special is that it integrates very well with the Mac and makes the best use of the rather slow phone network connection. It is much much more versatile than a generic VNC solution:
It knows which apps run on the Mac - you can launch, hide and quit them via a special menu.
It zooms in onto the front window automatically, and transfers only as much data of the screen than the little iScreen can show. No bandwidth goes to waste.
It has a smart and useful zoom feature to help selecting small items under the finger.
If you have a Mac at home that you feel you sometimes want to connect to while away, I can highly recommend this app. I've used it for almost a year and had never a serious problem (i.e. crash) with it. You just can't go wrong with it.
