I use a combination of teamviewer and xbmc to run my HTPC from an iPad to avoid having to have a keyboard/mouse connected.

side note: I mainly watch tv/movies with the HTPC but anytime people come over people are more impressed that I have Pandora playing on my home theater/tv with a pretty-looking XBMC plugin. I use a HTPC case that looks like a surround sound receiver so it's not obvious that a computer is sitting under my TV.

I also have it on my 2nd desktop in my home office but since I leave a dedicated 4th monitor with a keyboard/mouse it's not quite as useful. If I ran the 2nd box headless than teamviewer would definately get heavy use.

I have the Android version on my phone as well.
