why not use the emulators that come with the SDKs is what I am thinking? not sure why you would want to preview any where else other then the actual device even if it is simulated ,
for Android you can use the Device Manager and create a mock phone for just about any device Android runs on
on IOS well you get the Iphone emulator

This site is great. Upload up to 8,000 pixel high pngs and the app connects to your dropbox. Can add hotspot links too to make it interactive.

i do this all day long for a living. of course, nothing beats the real device.
then i use:
http://responsive.is - great because its browser based, just punch in the URL you want to test and switch layouts. Nice.
Charlie proxy - allows me to use my local network to run the actual local files (if not yet on a webserver) on my iStuff. Awesome!
Android SDK emulator. Slow and shit. But helpful as I dont have any Android devices.
Browserstack.com - can be helpful for stupid browser requests etc.
