Hi Bill,
Great to read that you're still at it. Which phones are you trying to demo 
from? I guess that is: which phones do you want to produce video output?

Of course, the best way to demo from an application is to show it working on 
the phone. In my experience, customers don't believe the app is real unless 
they see it on a working phone with mobile network access.

The case for Bill seems a bit different. How do you show an app working on a 
live phone to lots of people at the same time.
