    Default Alternative to MiVtones?

    I was very interested in MiVtones after seeing in in cydia, however, I have yet to receive any response from the developers about questions i had prior to purchasing their software.

    I read many complains about the prices so i decided to check up on them. As of the last time i checked; 12/7/2008:

    Their forums are down.
    http://forum.ifonetec.com/

    Their comments sections are closed
    MiVTones is only $9.99 ( original $19.99) for promotion. : iFoneTec Ltd

    Their help pages are 404 on the website.
    http://www.mivtones.com/help.php

    Im not seeing much activity at all and that only spells bad news to me.

    SO,.... Im wondering if there is an alternative to MiVtones?

    Here's the email i sent them if anyone else wants to read it:

    Hi! Nice program. I've always wanted something that does video for a ringer or some kind of animation.
    I'm definetly interested in purchasing the program however, the price seems a bit high compared to other apps out there and for this reason i'm being a bit more cautious and not impulsive. (Don't get me wrong, i am impresed with what I see so far)

    What is the development status and road map of MiVtones?
    (I really don't want to buy something that's going to be dropped next month or so... )

    Forum status? http://forum.ifonetec.com/
    I see its not available yet. Any idea when it will be available?

    MiVTones.com website the help link is 404. http://mivtones.com/help.php

    And I'd like to request a feature if mivitones is in active development you dont mind:
    -Random video ringer / randomize play:
    I'd like to see some way of setting MiVtones to choose and play a random video from the library upon incoming call. This way im not seeing the same video from the same person calling me all the time.

    (if you are not familiar with MiVtones, see here: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7h85QEWfvl8]YouTube - MiVTones on Iphone 2.0 - Vwallpaper for Iphone 2.0[/ame]
