This is probably the dumbest question ever, and I'm 90% sure they would, but I have to ask because my wife is thinking of downloading a $45 app and she doesn't have an iPhone or iTouch yet.

No, unless you use the iPhone simulator which is only meant for testing and developing iPhone/iTouch apps. What app is it? There may be a Mac equivalent.

I don't know of any equivalents partly because I don't really know what that apps is for (exam prep for medical licensing?). I'll let someone more knowledgeable recommend an app for you if there is an equivalent.
