iPhone GUI

Just a little something I found interesting awhile back and would like to share. The fine folks over at teehanlax.com seem to have completely replicated the iPhone GUI (Graphical User Interface) from scratch. They’ve also made this great little piece of genius available for free!

The little circle

While playing around online I came across a forum and someone had asked what the little circle is that sometimes sits next to your signal bars. Apparently it indicates when you are in a GPRS network, which normally happens when you’re switching networks. I’m assuming it may be the same on both first and second gen iPhones, but I’m not sure.
