Sometimes I get a bit impatient when either downloading or burning something on my imac and need to step out for some fresh air.

instead of continuously checking up on the computer to see if its done, is there an app that (once opened) shows me what's going on on my screen?

I don't need it to be able to do anything from there, I'd just like to see a live feed of my screen.

Thanx
 
That is what all the VNC apps like Jaadu VNC do, however they provide full control. What might work better is if you use Growl on your Mac (or PC for that matter) to notify you when such downloads finish then use Prowl on your iPhone to get notified of the alerts when away from your computer.
