U.S.-based Cricket Communications Inc., is providing a preloaded icon for the

Poynt enhances the local search experience with detailed search results and the
ability to view movie trailers and showtimes, purchase movie tickets, book
dining reservations, view directions on a map, click-to-call a business or view
a website. Poynt also displays local weather conditions and connects users to a
five-day weather forecast at the click of a button.
"Cricket identified Poynt as an app that provides additional value to their
users, whether at home or while traveling," said Andrew Osis, CEO of Multiplied
Media. "We are thrilled at the chance to get Poynt in front of Cricket customers
with this new preload."
