Audio call requests made via Empathy are to receive some long over due ‘pimping’ in Ubuntu 11.04.

Incoming calls are no longer alerted to users via the Ubuntu Messaging Menu, instead they are displayed using IDO – ‘Indicator Display Objects’.

In this video you can see the new style notification in action.

File transfer dialogs are also set to receive the same treatment shortly.
