Splashtop Remote (HD) (https://market.android.com/details?id=com.splashtop.remote.pad&feature=search_result) does it.

It works including on top of Theater View, but you do see the cursor while touching-2-navigate. Otherwise pretty smooth, including full screen video (on the tablet; the screen res on the source PC gets adjusted).

Thanks for the tip but, she won't work for me.  The PC just switches from MC to WMC and Splashtop won't work with WMC.  Gets:

"Streamer currently does not support applications that require direct screen access.

Please reconfigure to run in windowed mode."

A few things: Xoom is definitely supported, a few guys wrote good reviews using the app with Xoom.

Make sure you have your sound settings right (you probably do) and use RO or configure your own filters without madvr, as that is direct access and I can confirm the app crashes. Otherwise I don't see why it shouldn't work.

Thanks for the replies.  I really hope they work out the "direct access".  It's a VERY cool app but, for me it MUST work with WMC.  The machine is mainly a DVR with my Ceton tuner.
