iPhone 1.1.3 home page icon - apple-touch-icon.png
Wanting to let users put a slick image of your app on their home page? Simply create a 59 x 59 png file with your icon, name it apple-touch-icon.png and place the file in the root of your web application. The png file will automatically be picked up and placed on the home page.
Couple design things to keep in mind. The renderer for the home page will automatically put the highlight onto the icon as well as the rounded corners.
Save iRibbit, the web application that lets you bid on eBay auctions on your desktop and you can see the iRibbit icon.

120 x 120 is looking good, but if you want a border you need to set the image off center. See http://artistan.org/iPhone/ to see what I mean.
