RemoteTap is the first and only "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.

UNIQUE FEATURE - APPLE REMOTE
With one tap, RemoteTap will overlay the current Mac screen with a semi-transparent Apple Remote. Use the full screen remote while exactly watching the result in Front Row and all apps supporting remotes.
UNIQUE FEATURE - AUDIO
Listen to what's going on around your Mac, or watch a flash or windows media video right on your Mac and iPhone/iPod touch. Use your Mac's built in microphone to record audio, or use the free Soundflower tool to capture application audio in full CD quality! NOTE: Audio requires OS X 10.5 Leopard.
UNIQUE FEATURE - APPLICATION CONTROL VIEW
Tired of scrolling around to launch, hide, or quit an application? Let RemoteTap do this work for you. Tap on the "Apps" button, and a list of all running (or all Dock / all installed) applications will transparently overlay the screen. Launch, hide, or quit any application with a single click.
UNIQUE FEATURE - AUTOFOCUS
Tired of scrolling between different windows, alert panels, and menus? Let RemoteTap do the scrolling for you. It automatically focuses on the active window, zooming and scrolling the screen to make it fit. It even remembers the last zoom and scroll values for each window. This also works for menu windows and between different application.
UNIQUE FEATURE - MAGNIFYING GLASS
Tired of trying to position the mouse cursor precisely? Let RemoteTap help you. Touch and hold in RemoteTap and within half a second a magnifying glass will appear showing the area around the mouse position in 4x zoom. Click, double click, or drag within the magnifying glass.
OTHER REMOTETAP FEATURES:
• OpenGL screen image scaling right on your Mac reducing the bandwidth and cpu utilisation

Control your Mac from your iPhone
by Rob Griffiths , Macworld.com
ReadPixel’s RemoteTap lets you control to your local Mac from the iPhone or iPod touch (if you’re on a wireless network), much like Jaadu VNC and Mocha VNC. Unlike those others, however, RemoteTap requires installation of a System Preferences panel on each Mac before it will function.
