I have developed an iPhone app using an iPhone 3G. How can I test it on iPhone 3GS, iPad, etc.? Is there a service online that lets me access a 3GS or iPad remotely?

A:
just run the iPhone Simulator and change the Hardware Device to iPad
regarding iPhone versions, you can change that as well.

To test on real different devices and not on an emulator (which in no way represents the actual on device behaviour/performance), you can use a very professional service of DeviceAnywhere. It's payed service though. (not sure about the pricing)

hundreds of us, Apple Developers, shipped iPad versions of applications with not a single iPad on the market, all just using the fantastic iPhone Simulator that is part of the SDK, it works fine for 99% of the stuff, just the accelerometer need an actual device.

@balexandre As Reflog pointed out you should test on a real device, especially because of performance tests. Your Macs CPU is a bit faster than the iDevices...

for that, u should invest in a 2nd hand device for testing. the value get from one app is sufficient to get money for a 2nd hand device.
