It's generally assumed, but not officially confirmed, that the dungeon builder is effectively going to be a component of the Campaign Tools that are the new current project. There is absolutely no timeframe for when it's going to be released.

We have been told that the he character visualizer and the game table are no longer being worked on, and won't be considered for further development until the campaign tools are done. They haven't been officially announced to be canceled, but it's highly unlikely that they're going to be out anytime within the next year or two, if ever.

Hmm for the VTT and even the MapBuilder there are some free alternatives.
Is there one for a CharacterVisualizer, except looking for pics on google or DeviantArt?

I haven't seen anything short of Poser, WoW model viewer, and other 3D modeling programs for making 3D models.

There is HeroMachine - it's not D&D focused, but it's a 2D image construction tool. It's acceptable, if a little goofy.

This is exactly why I canceled my d&di account - they want me to pay more? It's the interactive tools I want to play with. The character builder is great, before I canceled my account, I built a ton of 5th level characters.

When wotc releases the new tools, I'll re-subscribe.
