All (or Mostly) Encompassing Mobile Device Emulator

My Google black belt has fallen off and I'm unable to find a single mobile device emulator that can be installed on Windows 7. I would be satisfied if it only supported iPhone and Android emulation.

Do any such emulators exist?

EDIT:

To clarify, I'm not asking if I can develop for the iPhone (or any other devices for that matter) on a Windows 7 machine. I'm asking if an emulator exists that would allow me to see a close approximation of how a site would be rendered on an iPhone, Android, or some other mobile device.

Not exactly an emulator, but you can use a plugin for Firefox/Chrome called User Agent switcher, which allows you to easily render mobile sites using a standard browser.

You'll also need the actual user agents to switch to, I use the ones found on TechPatterns (below), but you can find many more lists just by searching.

The Android SDK comes with an emulator, but to do iphone development, you will need a Mac. Bottom line.
