title: What is the best way to draw this ellipse in an iPhone app?
body: <p>I'd like to have a similar ellipse as the Mail app in my iPhone app. A screenshot just for reference is here: <a href="http://dl-client.getdropbox.com/u/57676/screenshots/ellipse.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://dl-client.getdropbox.com/u/57676/screenshots/ellipse.png</a></p>
  
  <p>Ultimately I'd like the ellipse with a numerical value centered in it. Is it best to use a UIImage for this task? Perhaps less overhead to draw it with Quartz? If it's done with Quartz, can anyone display a solution for drawing it?</p>
