If you just want to simulate the mobile device user agent and screen resolutions, also check out chrome's mobile device simulator https://developer.chrome.com/devtools/docs/device-mode#enable-device-mode

You might find http://quirktools.com/screenfly/ very useful for testing mobile websites on different screen sizes. It's not as true as a native emulator, but it allows you to test several phones, tablets, etc. at one site and you don't have to install any software.

In addition to Matt's reply, I think you should also test the different browsers available for smartphones.

For example the popular Opera mobile: http://www.opera.com/mobile/demo/

There is no one solution that will work on all these platforms however the SDKs for all include simulators/emulators and the best part is that all but for the iPhone are free.

BlackBerry Simulators
Android Emulator
Windows Phone 7 Emulator
The iPhone SDK also includes a simulator (Mac only) but if you need to test on a PC, you can do a pretty good job using http://iphone4simulator.com/ running in Safari for Windows.

As with all simulator/emulator usage, these are good for initial testing but you need to use an actual device to get true results.

Also note that different BlackBerry devices use different default browsers. Android devices also use varying versions of WebKit so you may see some variation between actual devices which isn't shown in the emulator.
