is there an iOS emulator?

I've searched high and low for a simple iOS emulator capable of parsing the meta tag "media=only..." for rendering CSS-based media queries. (I'm not looking for a full on application development program like xCode)It seems the "emulators" I've tried out are nothing more than pathetic simulations (usually just an iframe) of what the URL might look like as displayed at a mobile device width (480px).I've heard that xCode works as an emulator but it's a 1.6 GB download and I have to register myself as an app developer with Apple (not really a problem at all but it seems a bit too extravagant for my basic needs - like using a bazooka to kill a fly).I would like to use Media Queries instead of jQuery for mobile, but it seems this CSS3 tag is not compatible with any browsers. For the time being I'm having to test my work on my actual iPhone. Obviously that's a precise "real-world" rendering of it - which is great, but rather time-consuming (FTP your changes just to see a minimal style change - this isn't PHP, I shouldn't need to do that!)I'd appreciate some input! Thanks guys!
