I want to make a web application meant to be used from an iPhone. What resolution should I set it to in order to make it fit exactly into an iPhone screen without requiring scrolling or zooming when it is first loaded?

I tried various online iPhone simulators but they don't seem to work. Apple offer an SDK wihich includes an application that simulates an iPhone, but they want me to pay them to get an SDK that I will use to promote their products .

 

Something tells me I know who will be answering this

4s 640 x 960 pixels

4 640 x 960

3gs 320 x 480

3g 320 x 480

 

So I suggest 640*960

"Line 3 tells Safari that the viewport should be the same size as the iPhone screen. Usually the iPhone’s screen acts like a window and the web page is the background scenery. Setting this line forces the content to always fit the window. "

I settled for the smaller resolution since I am not sure whether the client has an iPhone 3 or 4. I asked a friend with an iPhone (4 I think) and he said the page looked fine and legible. I am still waiting for a response from the customer though so tha he confirms it works properly on his phone.
