Peter sent me the above picture earlier today, cheering me on from the west coast for the Creative Morning talk I gave.
In case it wasn’t already obvious, he is Awesome.

LiveView for mobile on-screen prototyping
The system has two parts: the LiveView ScreenCaster and the LiveView iPhone application. The ScreenCaster is a simple application that puts a virtual iPhone skin on your screen, its dimensions corresponding to a real iPhone such that the pixels inside of the virtual skin are precisely as many as on a real iPhone display.
