blue box/ little white boxes icon--what is it???

A new icon suddenly appeared on my screen directly to the right of the yellow email icons. It is a blue box with three white boxes inside (two up top, one below). I click on it and there is nothing there. What is it???

I'm new, so forgive what I'm sure is an obvious question...

TV

Can you post a pic of it?

I am pretty sure that is the blackberry messenger icon? Maybe not. Just remember seeing something like that before.

Yea I'm sure it is the BBM icon!

well, I tried to take a picture but they were all out of focus. I'm an analog guy, not digital...

And now the icon's gone. When I got my very first phone call message the blue box with white boxes (which had a 1 then 2 beside it) was replaced by the tape/phone icon and disappeared.

More stupid questions: does this mean I had BBM messages that I didn't see? And why would the icon disappear once I got my phone message?

The icon was a square blue box with three white boxes inside, not the blue conversation bubble...

any info appreciated, this is gnawing at my inquiring mind...

Definitely sounds like the BBM icon.

so that means I have BBM messages somewhere that I haven't read, as opposed to text messages?

again, sorry for the dumb questions...

I would assume so. Open BBM and see lol
