Mar 8, 2012 at 21:38 comment added Noam D. Elkies I've tried similar things in the past, recursively trying all 2- and 3-point sums from the known points. Using the canonical height seems more efficient in this range: it took only a minute or so to try all candidates of height $200$ or less (yes, double what I posted -- I'll update this in the next edit). As expected no new integral points appeared.
Mar 8, 2012 at 18:32 comment added joro Elkies, probably not your method, i didn't care about the height. Just tried an opportunistic search. If G is the set of the generators + the torsion point tried subset sums of {P,-P,2P, -2P} P in G. The known points were found fast (the subsets are still running).
Mar 8, 2012 at 15:23 comment added Noam D. Elkies @joro: using the same kind of method or something else?
Mar 8, 2012 at 13:52 comment added joro FYI found all of your integral points and none new so far.

Forgot that the 2-torsion point (0,0) is integral...
