Great for those 4 phones - would be nice to have more devices.

^^^ +1 for Keynote

** Update ** Keynote is Windows only!

Nice! I will check both out as ive been looking for a decent simulator. Mobilizer looks simple but only has 4 devices. Keynote with 2000 devices seems more feature right but also more complex to use,.

Ok tested Mobilizer and although its great for quick webpage testing, in reality its just a resized webkit browser (chrome/safari) and so doesnt show you the impact of things like high pixel density devices (retina).

Just testing some alternatives as well.

Here is a big list:

Ok the opera one is super awesome!



http://www.opera.com/developer/tools/mobile/

20+ devices
And you can define your own
Resolution + Pixel Density + Inpout method simulation (like touch)

Only downside is that it simulates the opera browser and therefore might not reflect the native browser on the device.

Heres an example of the STM forum on a retina type display:

Ya saw that before, on a mac right now and like tijn said it's a bit more work involved. Great program, but I'm just too lazy to work with it.
