ScheduledAgent user notification

I have background task in windows phone 7 app.

 PeriodicTask periodicTask = new PeriodicTask("TheWorker");
    periodicTask.Description = "The worker task";
    periodicTask.ExpirationTime = DateTime.Now.AddDays(1);

    ScheduledActionService.Add(periodicTask);
    btnStartStopBgTask.Content = "Stop Background Task";
    isBackgroundTaskEnebaled = true;

The app does a few tasks .

Is there a way to send notification to user when the app is not open from the background ?

As we have in android..

Say in the background it checks something over the internet and finds out something interesting to be notified to the user. can it do?

Yes you can send a message to the user if your app is not running with a BackgroundAgent, and you could create a live tile too and show the news there or tell the user there is news.
