BlackBerry

 

 

  • tablet webworks: 90px
  • applications for all form factors can accept two images for the icon: a regular icon and a hover icon, which is displayed when the user hovers over the app with the cursor. 
  • BlackBerry 6: "For application icons, create an icon file that does not exceed 68-by-68 pixels. This size includes the canvas. Keep the weight of icons inside a 49-by-49 pixels space. Smaller elements can extend beyond this size but icons should not exceed 55-by-55 pixels. If the icon within the canvas exceeds this size, it could be scaled down and upset the line weights and gradients."

http://docs.blackberry.com/en/developers/deliverables/20770/Application_icons_834662_11.jsp has info about "defaults" - the BBW packager will look for icon.gif, icon.png, and icon.jpg in the root of the app package by default, or go for what's specified in config.xml.
