debugging - iOS6 - removed console log for IPad - how to use web inspector on windows?

Question

So iOS6 is out, horrah. Now, it appears as though Apple have removed the 'Developer Console' that used to exist in Safari. Great, I hear a lot of people say - it was limited.

But, it works on the device - now apparently you have to connect the device to a Mac to get web inspector?

Is this the only way of debugging with console? Is there a way of debugging with windows, safari? Please note, I don't mean just changing user-agent, which you can do on Safari Windows - that doesn't register touch events - just click.

If you don't have Mac OSX you can use this script as console replacement:

It shows error message, it's possible to log all kind of variables, you have to turn your iPhone or iPad 90° to the right to open the console.
