so it that little white box on the lower left side wall of battery slot, thought so. So if its all white, it is indicating no moisture, correct?

It means that no moisture has touched the indicator. If you got moisture inside your keyboard or your trackball and now they're not working, then the moisture indicator on the back may not tell you that.

What exactly is wrong? Is it not working correctly?

There are several... One on the middle screw on the right (if you're looking @ the battery), one I believe is on the battery, and then IIRC there's always at least 2 more on the circuit board as well.. I could be wrong about the 2 on the curcit board, this is my first BB so I'm not sure how RIM monitors the moisture on the boards themselves.

That's not a moisture indicator. That's a warranty sticker to show if you have removed the screw at any time.

There are multiple moisture indicators inside the case. I am not sure about locations.
