if its a black circle with the BB logo in it, then its the appworld logo, this means theres an upgrade for a currently installed app available to download from appworld. this message can be found in the messages folder.

very good point Grayman, sadly the appworld icon isnt included in the OS5 list (due to time of release i guess) so the icon in question is missing from that page. but its a good page to note for sure.

i know this link is for OS7 devices, but the appworld icon is the same throughout the range, so id guess the icon being seen is the icon top right in the homescreen section on this page http://docs.blackberry.com/en/smartphone_users/deliverables/31648/
