My question is kinda strange: is there a way to show incoming calls and SMS on my computer screen while my HTC Legend is connected to it by USB?

When I'm the university library I've to put the cellphone in silent mode and often I end up loosing calls&SMS while I'm working on my laptop.

So it would be very nice if there was a way to notify me with incoming calls (maybe on windows 7 task bar) while my cellphone is connected to the pc via USB.

Does anyone know a way to achieve this?

Thanks :)

Are you able to install software on the university computers? There might be the need to have something on your computer to recognize this. also might get a little tedious as you will have to install this every time you connect to a new university computer. (or maybe not if you are able to log on with you user name and save the program into your student Port)
