I need a message box like control that looks like a bubbling popup. Like the speech bubble message from the phone.
Can someone recommend such control? How can I achieve this effect in Windows Phone?
Check out the Coding4Fun windows phone toolkit. They have chatbubble controls that you can easily add to your project. They also have prompt controls that notify users of events that you specify. coding4fun.codeplex.com

I wanted to know is there any way I can achieve the same behavior of CheckBox we have in our windows phone outlook. In a listbox I have checkbox on every item but it should appear only when I touch and hold.
Please see the windows phone email program where your touch and hold in the left side and see all the checkboxes.
Thanks

What you're looking for is the MultiselectList control, which is part of the WP Toolkit...

Is there any way to add in a custom control such as a textbox or button into a messagebox for windows phone 7?
The Windows Phone Assets project on Codeplex has a NotificationBox cutom control which is described as:
Notification Box is a replacement for the non-customizable Windows Phone MessageBox native control. The NotificationBox custom control has Control Template, and is fully customizable, providing freedom for picking different user actions.
The example code on there shows how to have your own buttons on the form, and I'm sure you could use it as a base for adding textboxes as required.
I have a screen with a form, in some situations, I want to show a popup style menu. How could I do so without affecting the layout of the form that is behind the popup?
I'd use the InputPrompt from the Coding4Fun Toolkit for Windows Phone 7. You can get details on how to do this in this blog post
A good choice as well is the Telerik option:
