Poynt Now AvailableTo UK Users

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

I have emailed Poynt. As yet, people search does not work in the UK as yet.

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
