I love this, primarily because I think it's pretty. Great visual style (even though I agree with Louis about the edges)
However, the metaphor seems a little strange. It feels like you're mixing radar with a compass needle, using the the needles almost like a sweeping line of a radar.
@Mikael Eidenberg I tried using the pattern on the ocean but it reduced the cleanliness of the icon.
@Josh Bryant Actually, I am either going to use the radar or the needle, while keeping the background same.The combination of two was just an experiment.

Wicked! Love that it's different than the usual blue. You got a thing for different and definitely know how to pull it off!

Oh that's gorgeous. The sparkles, shine effect and high contrast are all winners.

@AndyTheJoker I'll see if increase in the width of the needle improves the overall look.
@Umar Can't tell that before the app is released :)
@Louis I reduced the bevel effect and came up with this: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7030224/Preview3.jpg
