Thanks for all the quick replies, i checked the manual and the icon isnt stated anywhere, which is really strange, and i checked the location services and it aint that either (that looks like a proper arrow) This one is literally like a blue triangle, that is directly in the top left corner, almost off the screen.

I had that few minutes ago on iPhone 4 with iOS 4.0.1.
Did anyone know what is that?

P.S. Disappear after reboot, that's really odd.

Posting this from my touch, I'm looking at the little triangle right now. It doesn't seem to be a stuck pixel, as it has a virtual shadow. Haven't yet done a spotlight search...

I had the same thing happen to me tonight. Rebooted the iPhone and now it's gone?

Solar flare?

I just had the exact same thing. Was updating some apps when I noticed it, may not be related. Swiping to spotlight got rid of it.

Strange that no one knows what it means.
I have seen it as well on my iPhone 3Gs running iOS 4.1.
Sweeping over to spotlight/search window clears it.
