Let me know if you got it to work - this is just a little Bash script to do the work, basically this is what it does:
1. execute hcitool command to get a list of all devices
2. use the awk to filter out the lines with 'BD Address' in it
3. use grep to see if we have a match
4. use dbus-send to display an alert if there is a match
Cheers, Arne

after I've moved it to ~/
I then ran you chmod 755 ~/N900finder.sh
Then when I run
~/N900finder.sh
I get on the next line
/bin/sh: /home/user/N900finder.sh: not found
am I doing something wrong?

sh ~/N900finder.sh
and it should work.

OK, without modification it doesn't compain?
Line #4 should read like:
grep '00:BD:3A\|00:BD:3B'`;
Notice the \| as a separator and the '`; (quote, backtick, semicolon) at the end of the line. You should be able to add as many laps as you like as long as they have the \| in between. If you still have troubles pm me as it might be out of scope to discuss that here - all I can say is that the code runs on my N900 ... or mail me: arne at robota dot nl.

Code:
#!/bin/bash
a=`hcitool scan --class | awk '/BD Address/ {print substr($3,0,8)}' | grep '00:BD:3A\|00:BD:3B'`;
echo $a;
if [ "$a" ]
then
dbus-send --type=method_call --dest=org.freedesktop.Notifications /org/freedesktop/Notifications org.freedesktop.Notifications.SystemNoteDialog string:'Pizza! N900 here!' uint32:0 string:'OK'
fi;

I copied the code above and added one more section so it look slike this:
and I get the following errors:
:not found N900finder.sh:line 2:
:not found N900finder.sh:line 3:
:not found N900finder.sh:line 7: syntax error: "fi" unexpected (expecting "then")
Please not this when I'm not expecting to find a device. perhaps thats why there is an error, could someone try my code please.
#!/bin/bash
a=`hcitool scan --class | awk '/BD Address/ {print substr($3,0,8)}' | grep '00:BD:3A\|00:BD:3B\|00:21:9E'`;
echo $a;
if [ "$a" ]
then
dbus-send --type=method_call --dest=org.freedesktop.Notifications /org/freedesktop/Notifications org.freedesktop.Notifications.SystemNoteDialog string:'Pizza! N900 here!' uint32:0 string:'OK'
fi;

Add the path to the correct directory for the commands hcitool, awk, grep, echo and dbus-send like:
/usr/bin/hcitool
/usr/bin/hcitool

P.S it will take time, cause I'm new to Maemo dev. but I will try and app name searching as well.
