This is too late for Emacs 24.1 It could go in 24.2, but I am not sure
it is generally useful, because it means that if the Emacs window is
iconified, or behind another window, you will go no visible notification.

Customize appt-disp-window-function, eg

(require 'cl)

(setq appt-disp-window-function 'foo)

(defun foo (min-to-app new-time appt-msg)
  (flet ((raise-frame (&optional frame) (ignore)))
     (appt-disp-window min-to-app new-time appt-msg)))
