Does anybody know what font (or at least typeface) the little i icon in Mac OS X’s dashboard widgets is? Thank you very much!

Not sure but I'm thinking of Leitura Display italic?

I thought it was a custom job myself. Though Georgia italic might be similar.

Georgia is similar, but it’s definitely not Georgia. Leitura comes close but I think it is slightly less slanted.
Hoefler Text Bold Italic comes mighty close!

Hoefler Text being a OS X system font, it could well be the starting point for the icon. But I will be surprised if it wasn’t somewhat massaged into pixel perfection.
