Filed under: VoIP A few days ago we discovered that Skype was shutting down its Extras program which lets users download and install add-ons for the internet telephony software directly from the Skype client. But it turns out that doesn’t mean plugins for Skype will all disappear at the stroke of midnight. Pamela makes two popular add-ons for Skype, the Pamela application for recording Skype audio and video calls and PamFax , an application that lets users send faxes over Skype.

If you’re considering a luxury cell phone, you’ve probably given some thought to the Aura — either as an object of unattainable techno-lust or as a way to lighten your wallet by a grand or two (don’t even get us started in Vertu).

While Americans are pining for smart phones even though they don’t have any idea how to use the things, in Japan people not only pocket far more advanced cellys than here, but use them productively. More than twice as many people use smart phones there than do in the States (despite less than half the population), but the companies making those phones have been hopeless when it comes to catering to the international mobile space
