PXL files are a type of package that is used to install software. When you use ibrickr you can installed pxl packages (applications) with the software. The first time you use ibrickr to install pxl files, ibrickr will install the pxl daemon on the phone. The pxl plugin for safari allows you to go to any website that has pxl files and you can click on one and it will download and install that file onto your phone. This allows you to install a piece of software on the go when you are not near a computer. Installer.app would be another alternative.

any sites already existing known for providing files of this type? Are they all for applications or media too? Where would they put them in the harddrive by default?

Thanks
But it seems like there's not one file on there that's NOT on installer. Are there any other sites offering anything else?

Use this source to make an mp3 or mp4 plugin
Since this source knows to open and save the pxl, lets get an effort to make it download and save mp3 and mp4 files right to the music an video parts of our phones. I couldnt find source code or I would try it myself.
Can anyone help convert pxl plugin to save mp3s right from the internet. It would be a first step towards even more greatness.
This would subsitute as a copy and paste or right click save file as:
Imagine:
Save .jpg
Save .mp3
Save .mp4
Save .mov
Save .rar (would need a terminal unzipper)
Save .zip (would need a terminal unzipper)

Change the .pxl to .zip
Extract the zip file
Take the plugin file located in the "plugin" folder of your zip extract
Put the plugin in:
/System/Library/Internet Plug-Ins
on your phone
Force restart Safari by launching Safari and holding the home button until you return to the desktop.

PS Why would I email you?
