GoToMyPC remote access software gets a Mac version
GoToMyPC, probably the most-advertised solution for remotely accessing your other machines, is finally coming to Mac. No, it's not called GoToMyMac. The slightly-more-confusing name is "GoToMyPC for Mac." Despite the name, you can use it to access either a Mac or a PC from your OS X machine. The pricetag is $19.95/mo to access one other computer, but there's also a 30-day free trial. That should come in handy, because GoToMyPC is a popular brand-name product debuting on a platform where there's already some solid competition.
The first alternative that comes to mind is Apple's Back To My Mac, which is part of MobileMe, and is also no good to you if you're looking to use your Mac to access a Windows machine. There's also LogMeIn, which comes as either a free or a Pro version (Pro costs $69.95/yr to connect to one computer but there's a 30-day free demo). LogMeIn also has an iPhone app, and there's even Blackberry Storm support (seriously). If you're just looking for simple screen sharing, LogMeIn Express is a free option you should explore.

As an iPhone app, Remote Jr has remote access, trackpad and the traditional remote control for $7.99. Four stars in the App Store, too. It also does Mac and Windows - remotejr.com.
