I feel like an *****. And I did think it might be some type of reset. Button so I'm glad I asked before jamming a paper clip in there.
BTW. Is there a way to reboot/reset my BB other than removing the battery?

LOL, at a former job, our CEO did that while out of town; he was calling from the hotel room's phone, talking to my co-worker, who was trying to talk him through resetting the BB.
This is the story as I overheard it, sitting next to him:
IT guy: There should be a small pinhole, possibly under the battery that you can put a paperclip in and reset the device
CEO: I think I found it.. I got a paper clip.. hang on..
CEO: Ok, I did that, but it didn't turn off or anything.. I just tried to call my wife, and she can't hear me, but I can hear her..
IT Guy: The hole was under the battery door?
CEO: No, on the bottom of the phone..
IT Guy: Umm, you pushed a paperclip in there??
CEO: Yeah, I didn't mess around either; I like, you know, JAMMED it in there.. and NOTHING
