Crude? Put the P900 on to of your monitor and set vibrate on. Your monitor will rattle and shake.
Or put your phone next to the speakers. Good change they will blare out the typical distortion when a call comes in.

Ha ha ha ha ha! Nice ideas.
Maybe I have to use these methods till someone comes up with something for the P900! |

So now do we have anything for the P900 which will make my PC show some dialog box or make a sound when I get a call on my P900? |

Any BT enabled phone with voice gateway service can make a BT enabled PC "ring". |

If you're any good at coding and wanna code it yourself, it's quite simple (I believe).
You need to treat the phone as a Modem and send the AT+CLIP=1 command to the serial port. This tells your phone you want it to send incoming call data to the PC (known as RING or CLIP data).
The easiest way to set your phone up as a modem is either via bluetooth or configuring your cradle connection to use your phone for dial-up networking.
You then can listen on the incoming serial port for events... The P900 will send call events like this:
+CLIP: "+44-YOUR_NUMBER-"
Where YOUR_NUMBER is the incoming telephone number... you could then just show a MsgBox or something more fancy. All in all, I reckon a simple program to listen for incoming calls would take an average C/C++/Java/Perl/Whatever coder 6 hours or so to get a rough and ready solution.
I have a lot of experience in this area (writing modem listeners and cell phone tappers), but I can't give you my existing software and I can't sell it either (licensing woes). However, if someone decided to code it and had any questions I could answer them.
Best,
