iPhoney has an embedded WebKit view, so the behavior should be more or less accurate, although it doesn't yet support pinching and zooming.

If you're developing a web application or site in anticipation of the iPhone's arrival, you can either adjust a Safari window to be 320x480, or you can download the free app iPhoney and give it a try in a more aesthetically pleasing context.

Test iPhone web apps without an iPhone
Sorry, but neither of these approaches is going to work. The iPhone's browser isn't just a 320x480 WebKit window. It has other changes that will significantly affect the display of a web site, like the fact that it expands scrollable areas to their maximum size.

This is cute, but far, far from accurate. Flash and other plugins work here, they won't on an iPhone. (well, Flash renders but doesn't fully work...) There's no auto-zooming (in or out) based on layout. No iPhone stylesheet usage. All Quicktime codec's work (they don't on iPhone). RTSP works (it doesn't on iPhone). It doesn't even use the proper user-agent as their web site says. In other words it's just as if you'd taken Safari and made the window small. I'm sorry to diss MarketCircle who are really fine folks.
Online alternative
Although just as poor at being a real tester, there is a online version at http://iphonetester.com that will quickly let you check what your site "may" look like on the iPhone's screen.

CALL us 'Naive' but everything within us detects a flaw in the logic. We expect at some point the North American cell phone/internet communications will undergo an attack. Pershaps not the year 2007 but in these years to follow.
