What about doing the MSN (Windows Messenger) style popup you get when you receive a new message. A small window "slides" up from the status bar area of the desktop (on the start menu taskbar). It stays visible for a short time with the name of the sender of the message and the first few words of the message. Then after about 5 seconds it either slides down or fades out. Yours could show progress info or job status or whatever.
