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

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.
