Too bad we can't remotely access video files on the computer.

For that, Air Video has worked great for me. (There's a free version that shows up to N files in a folder, if you want to try it out first.)

Or just use Plex - a bit smarter than AIR Video - it includes placeholders so you can stop watching in the living room (via computer) and start from the same spot in bed (via iPad/iPhone).

Air Video is nice, but you can't store movies for travelling.

ZumoCast has that functionality (a download button, for offline viewing).

I recommend StreamToMe. It's the best $3 I've spent. Transcodes on the fly, works great. We watched cartoons in the car. (iPad tethered to my 3g android phone).

Check out 'Air Video', plays anything from your machine to your iPad over wifi without syncing. Works remarkably well.
