Observer Comments
Sorry, man. I have used and paid for Earth Browser since 1.0. Loved it and used it frequently since, upgraded to 2.0 and all the way up until present.
But I will not be upgrading to 3.0.
The use of Adobe Air to program this has turned it into a herky-jerky, slow approximation of the app it once was.
I am very sad to say this.
