"Foresight.js gives webpages the ability to tell if the user's device is capable of viewing high-resolution images (such as the 3rd generation iPad) before the image is requested from the server. Additionally, it judges if the user's device currently has a fast enough network connection for high-resolution images. Depending on device display and network connectivity, foresight.js will request the appropriate image for the webpage."

I thought I'd bookmarked this before. Really nice site from the Microsoft folks - uses an AJAX viewer for DeepZoom (not Silverlight or Flash) and will make a viewer for you from any large image anywhere on the web. Slick.
