Some phones have a video-out that can mirror whatever's on the screen
(not just for videos, like some other phones).
The Samsung Galaxy S is supposed to be one of those:

although I haven't had a reason yet to try it myself.
If it's really as described, you could hook it up to a video recorder of
some sort (a DVR, a video camera) or a video capture board, and record
real-time video.

After spending too much time trying to get a video of my app, I wanted
to follow up on this thread.
Last night I spent the better part of the night trying to capture
video and audio from a walk-through of my application. I used Fraps
to capture video of my desktop and the audio from my headset, which
worked out really well. I used the emulator to run my application and
a web browser beside it as that has a value for explaining usage. The
emulator was so slow, causing issues not found while running on real
hardware, and simply useless for these purposes. I can't imagine
trying to do development on the emulator exclusively. I've always
used my phone to debug and I suspect that if I didn't have that
luxury, I wouldn't have lasted long trying to do Android development.
It was awful.
I managed to capture about 45 minutes of video which came down to
about 20 minutes after editing. There's still a lot of lag and
performance issues being shown in the video that aren't representative
of the experience that customers have on their phone, so really, I
won't be releasing what I've created so far. It won't do a lot for
promotion if a prospective customer thinks they'll be waiting a minute
for certain screens to show up -- when in reality they won't be.
Now I need to find a way to capture using my phone directly and
walking through the application that way. The performance is real,
the experience is a better representation of the actual app, and will
be a better showcase for what a customer is about to purchase. It
sucks I can't use the emulator to convey that.
