Is there any software which would make my PC show some kind of alert message/flashing screen when I get a call on my P900 (Ofcourse, I will keep my P900 connected via the docking station). I usualyy play my music load on the PC and tend to miss calls on the P900. If only sme S/W could flash something on the screen of my PC on the event of an incoming call

Can FMA work with the docking station? Or is it just Bluetooth?

So it works only with the T series? Does Phone Control work with the P series? Does Phone Control Require BlueTooth or does it work with the Docking Station?

Phone Control did not work with the Sync Station . I installed full DontNet 1.1 on XP Pro, made COM3 port available, and ran the "Phone Tester" executable - It gives some weird error message "ResString not found". I think its not able to display the exact messages using the DontNet framework.

Anyone hit with similmar problem? Anyone got PhoneControl working with a P900 + WinXP PrO + Sync Station?

Google for a software called MOBILedit! Its better than fma and does what you want but i've only tried it with k700i. It seems to support a load of phones so definitely worth a shot. Its not free btw...you can download a free trial copy...if you like it just buy the trial key or you can always... *cough cough*

Even MobileEdit does not work with P900, atleast thats what the compatibiliy page on MobileEdit seems to say . Why cant all of these work with the P900?

Something is really bothering me

Is there *ANY* CRUDE way to make the PC do *SOMETHING* when an incoming call comes on a P900?
