A few days ago we got a nice little email from the good folks over at Poynt. They brought us some great news for all those living in the UK. Poynt has been localized for UK residents and is now available fo download via their site. You can search local businesses, people and check movie times even view movie trailers all from your device and many more great features such as restaurant reservations from your device are planned in the months ahead.
Other features of this great application include:
- GPS functionality has been optimized to provide faster accurate locates.
- Cell-site locates allow Poynt to quickly access a user’s general location while awaiting a GPS lock.
- Poynt is fully integrated with both BlackBerry Maps and Google Maps.
- Poynt integrates with Gokivo Navigator to provide turn-by-turn voice navigation.
- Users can add frequently accessed listings to their BlackBerry Contact List, providing convenience for future lookups
You can visit m.poynt.com/ota on your BlackBerry's web browser to download the latest copy.

Just noticed that the ota link that you give is incorrect, it should be http://m.mypoynt.com/ota

fixed. thanks!
actually it still directs the browser to m.poynt.com/ota
No. No, it isn't.
Is it suppose to be mypoynt.com??
I have emailed Poynt. As yet, people search does not work in the UK as yet.
FYI, this is a great app. Enjoy me mates!
YES YES YES YES YES!!!
Been waiting for this app for sooooo long.
My Blackberry was amazing before, now I wont me able to live without it!!!
This is very a very good tool, more accurate than the local search on Googlemaps.
The ota link is to m.poynt.com which is an advertising/holding site, I think the ota link needed is http://m.mypoynt.com/ota
As a UK Curve 8900 user the application is excellent, however the People Search does NOT work in the UK, just to let other know
After reading this i thought id download the latest version off poynt's site, but alas still no people search, still greyed out in the UK on the latest version :(
The correct URL to download is http://m.mypoint.com.ota
