Txt feature i cant find.

[Brock1909]

ok, for a short period of time, the last Handcent version i had, when i got a text message, the black box would show up on the lower screen with what the text said, no matter what program i was in, even on the home screen if i was in nothing, even in the middle of texting a new txt message it would show up. ( if you dont know what i am talking about, its the same little box that shows up when you save a new word in the dictionary, add a contact, etc)
i have no idea how to get this back. does anyone know how?

please and thanks
