Yes Im just on there this very second, it looks like a signal called the IncomingSegment is the key to my kingdom. It even has a python code snippet *thumbs up*

Code:

import gobject, dbus
   from dbus.mainloop.glib import DBusGMainLoop
   
   def handle_sms(pdu, msgcenter, somestring, sendernumber):
       print 'New message from %s' % sendernumber
       
   DBusGMainLoop(set_as_default=True)
   bus = dbus.SystemBus()
   bus.add_signal_receiver(handle_sms, path='/com/nokia/phone/SMS',   dbus_interface='Phone.SMS', signal_name='IncomingSegment')
   gobject.MainLoop().run()

One thing slightly annoying me is that at the top of the page is a big message box suggesting that the method might be not recommended or outdated:

"Please be aware that the recommended way to use the phone functionality is Telepathy"

But if it works then it works, i'll not worry too much about Telepathy.
