I want to be able to send arbitrary messages from my iphone to the bluetooth device and have it display it.
I would like to know if there is something already commercially available or something that can be put together with a little bit of effort.

You could use an Arduino with bluetooth and an LCD for under $200. The Arduino API is open source and very friendly.

thanks! that does look very interesting. I should also have mentioned my motivation for this as being too lazy to check my phone. I want to be able to wear this on my wrist or belt and have it vibrate and display messages. The Arduino looks a little too big...
