How can I implement a "Linked JavaScript Extension" and use it in a Widget?
You should check out The official Blackberry Widgets site which has some links to the documentation and API that you will been for developing widgets.

The answer to this is in a press release from RIM that came out yesterday.
Use the net.rim.device.api.script
package interface.
