Boost Mobile(R), a lifestyle-based telecommunications brand that develops and distributes wireless communications products for the youth market, and AirG, the global leader in powering mobile communities, announced the launch of Boost HOOKT--a private--labeled mobile community. With Boost HOOKT, Boost customers are able to hook into an interactive, geographically localized and interest-categorized mobile community that communicates across multiple wireless platforms and incorporates multiple unique features, including e-mail, IM, picture profiles, presence, and public and private messaging lounges.

messaging environment--all through their Boost Mobile phone," said Craig
Thole, director of Value Added Services, Boost Mobile. "AirG is one of
the strongest publishers of mobile community products, and we are
