Fring, that all in one VOIP and chat app, got a major bump today to v3.34.

Added new features:

  • Better fring addons (facebook, gmail, etc.)
  • File Transfer (Skype, MSN, Yahoo..no AIM?)
  • Typing indication
  • Some nav changes
  • Earpiece support for newer HTC devices

That last addon is something people who use VOIP services have been waiting for years. Anyways, it's a free service with a nifty Today Plugin, so if you use Skype, MSN, AIM, Yahoo, Twitter, etc. you may want to take it for a test run (or mobile site: m.fring.com)

And kudos to the fring developers who just got their official “Designed for Windows Mobile” certification.
