Hi,
What is the best way to demo an iPhone app on a projector?
Preferably without jailbreaking and without using a separate camera to record the iPhone screen which might limit movement?
Thanks,
Tee

5Yes but that doesn't quite work if the app needs to use camera, multitouch, accelerometer right?

A:
You could try a document camera if you need to demonstrate features which are not available in the Simulator.

For DEMO purposes only you can do a custom build of your app using the private API for video mirroring
Thanks @starkhalo, I actually saw that link. Looks very promising, but that won't work if we're on the app though right? (meaning, we can't capture if the app takes me to youtube or internet or sms and won't even capture the iPhone main screen)?

There really is no solved way to do this, which is why you see different places trying different things. Even at the Apple iPhone tech talks, the speakers use a pretty crappy projection solution.
It might be a better idea to prerecord a demo (Revision3 seems to have a pretty good setup) and then play a video instead of a live demonstration.
Hopefully Apple releases whatever they do during the Keynotes.

There is a nifty little video demonstrating how it can be done here. However just remember that if you "accidentally" submit an app to the AppStore with this enabled you are probably going to get it rejected right away.
