Modtones.com Brings Mobile Mistletoe to Cellphones this Holiday Season
(SAN FRANCISCO) – Modtones announces the best way to get kissed this holiday season. From the company that brought you the Incoming Booty Call and DisTones (ringtones for people you hate) comes Mobile Mistletoe.
From December 1 through December 31, customers of Cingular, T-Mobile and Sprint can download holiday goodies from Modtones.com. Verizon Wireless customers can find the images in the Modtones Gallery application on their phones. Since mistletoe isn’t terribly pretty and it’s a parasitic plant, mistletoe wallpaper offers a more pleasing way to partake of the tradition.
“I’m tired of constant maneuvering to get under that little thistle,” says Cindy Mesaros, Moderati VP Marketing and general girl about town. “I’d much rather someone use a sleek mobile phone to get a smooch from me.”
Now thanks to Modtones.com, you can download mistletoe wallpaper and take it along for unlimited kissing. Moderati, the creator of Modtones, just advises that you kiss responsibly and always use protection, such as lip balm with SPF 15.
How you ask?
Simple: Download the wallpaper at Modtones.com, then hold the phone over your head or over the head of the person you wish to kiss. As tradition dictates, they have to pucker up (tongue optional but advised).
And if you get only mistletoe, you’re missing out on everything else.
Over 60 holiday ringtones and 50 decorative wallpapers are available, including Christmas songs by The Chipmunks, Run DMC, and Larry the Cable Guy. And if you’re looking to impress your Jewish friends, try dropping a little “Oh Hannukah Groove” by the Frank London Big Band next time they call.
The top Modtones.com holiday ringtones as of December 1st are:
1. The Chipmunk Christmas Song
2. Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy
3. Christmas Time is Here (from A Charlie Brown Christmas)
4. Welcome Christmas (from the Grinch)
5. We Wish You A Merry Christmas
6. Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas
7. Sleigh Ride
8. Jingle Bells
9. You’re a Mean One, Mr. Grinch
10. Merry Christmas
Cost is $1.99 from per polyphonic ringtone or wallpaper, and $2.99 for master tones.

About Mistletoe
Mistletoe got its name in the second century from the Anglo-Saxons. “Mistel” is the word for “dung,” and “tan” is the word for “twig” — misteltan is the Old English version of mistletoe, and tells us mistletoe is named after bird droppings on a branch. One of the beliefs in the early centuries was that mistletoe grew from birds. People used to believe that, rather than just passing through birds in the form of seeds, the mistletoe plant was an inherent result of birds landing in the branches of trees.
