button

I would like to use or emulate a button like the gps button in the bottom left corner of the standard maps application on the iphone OS. The button behaves like a toggle button where gps is enabled or disabled depending on whether it is pushed and it may hold a small spinner component while the gps is finding your position.

Does anyone know if this component can be easily constructed using default components? If no, what would be the best way to develop such a component?

Is the crosshair/target icon a generic icon that I can re-use?
