I'm pretty sure someone already did that for the iPhone. Something related to the VNC open source. vnsea - Google Code

I won't write something like this because it already exists and I prefer apps that are special tailored for the job at hand. A remote desktop app can't deliver meter data in near realtime, as well as full-sized touch sensitive faders. I'm not saying it's a bad app, just not my sort of thing. It's the usual, general-purpose-does-all versus special-purpose-does-one-thing. This is a personal choice-

Google 'vnc for iphone' for some screenshots, install instructions and more links.
