I believe 7-zip can extract RAR archives. Though this began as a Windows
thing, it was released Open Source and has since been ported to other
architectures including Linux.

Have a look at the GPLflash project on SourceForge. It's not perfect yet by a
long stretch, but probably is getting worked on more now there is a more
pressing need for it.

There are quite a few Open Source VOIP phone clients out there. Personally,
I'd use a hardware SIP telephone such as a Grandstream BudgeTone or one of
the Zultys ZIP series everytime.
If you have to run closed-source software, you'll most probably be stuck in a
chroot. It's best for everyone if you contact the vendors concerned and
request politely but firmly that they release their products as Open Source.
