I'm looking for a remote access solution. I'd like to be able to access a Mac from either another Mac or an iPad. iPhone would be a bonus. What solutions are out there? I've used splashtop a little but I don't see that they have a Mac to Mac feature
 
I use TeamViewer, which is free for personal use and works with Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, Ubuntu, iPhone, iPad, etc. It's very secure and quite simple to set up and use (no messing around with ports), which comes in handy if providing remote support to those who aren't very computer literate. You can talk them through the setup on their end and be connected to them in less than a minute. I prefer it over LogMeIn because it includes free file transfers between computers, a feature I use frequently.
