I have been playing around with Google Earth, has anyone tried the upgrade to Google Earth Plus ?
I was wondering what can be found in the upgrade and if it's worth the money.
Thanks Bill
 
from Google:

Why buy plus?

In addition to the basic features, Google Earth Plus includes:

* Faster performance - enhanced network access
* GPS data import - read in tracks and waypoints from select GPS devices
o Note 1: Verified support for Magellan and Garmin devices only
o Note 2: Does not support export of tracks or waypoints to a GPS
* Higher resolution printing (greater than screen resolution).
* Customer support via email (not just web).
* Annotation – adds draw/sketch tools for richer annotations (can be shared as KML).
* Data importer – read address points from .csv files.

Not alot of extras, but may be worth the $20/year if you have a compatable GPS. Not worth it for the casual user IMHO
