Remote keyboard/mouse app

[GroundLoop]

I did a few searches and didn't come up with anything. I am about to hook up my Mac Mini Server (2009) and Drobo to my home theater. What I am looking for is an iPad app that simply acts as a remote keyboard and a mouse so that I can navigate the server UI from the sofa. I do NOT want a full VNC or remote desktop app, just a simple app for I/O to a Mac computer from the iPad.

So what apps are you guys and gals using for this? Is TouchPad any good/worth the $5?

HippoRemote Pro is great for the iPhone and I believe they're working on a native iPad app now. I use it for my Mac Mini HTPC and couldn't be happier.

AirMouse Pro

Works with windows also, in case you are wondering.

TouchPad is the nicest and most native functioning.

I'm using this also. I like when you install HippoVNC on the desktop, instead of using sharing, it will auto-open apps. Also like the login features.

I really like RC Trackpad, it supports the native Lion gestures, has a launchpad and a thumbnail window switcher. It also uses SSL so it is secure.
