Sad to see that this is AppStore only now. So without the AppStore existing customers are left behind.

It would be great if this could also translate the .result format produced by Sony Ericsson GPS phones (i.e. the Elm or the Hazel) - somebody already implemented this in Java, but it does not run on the Mac as far as I know…

Finally a simple app for creating KML files from GPS logs. I wonder why nobody wrote this before ... Very well done, thanks!

This software works very well with converting Garmin GPS files to KLM files for Google Earth. I am pleased with the results.
