hi from time to time I get this icon in my top area. It is not a voicemail or email/SMS. It just says "1" with a little arrow.

here's a picture:

Could it be you have 1 message that is set to 'low' importance? Just a guess.

Hmmm... could it be an altimeter? Saying that you are on the first floor, and going down?

Is it a weather push icon. Did you sign up for an push services. Check your browswer bookmarks and see if you have one for push services.

hey Stinsondog, sorry--- I wasnt saying "no" to you-- I was talking about the altimiter joke above. Yes I do have a weather icon under Apps. And in browser bookmarks , there is a link for it under "Browser Channels". edit: yes when I visited the channel, the arrow disappeared! :)

so that arrow means the channel was updated or pushed etc? where are the settings for this, etc? sorry Im such a dumb n00b.
thanks

That's it. You signed on to www.mobile.blackberry.com and signed up. Gotta go back and sign off, then delete the bookmark. BUT open the bookmark and see if you like it first. It's a push services icon.

I don't think you can edit the settings other that at www.mobile.blackberry.com. I like bbWeather myself. See my tips site.

Its a push icon. Probably from blackberry mobile.

Yeah, it's definitely the push, but mine appears on the other side of the time, right under the 'E' in EDGE. Of course, I've upgraded to Bharti, so that may account for the difference.

I sometimes get a strange icon if I have an unopened saved e-mail, or if I have an unopened SMS.
