"Works well, free"

Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
I think the previous reviewer may have downloaded the wrong version of this product. Go to the MapGPSBabel home page at http://gpsbabel.sourceforge.net/ and click on the Downloads link. Then make sure you choose to download the binary version for PPC, currently called "MacGPSBabel-1.2.3.sit" - if you click on the wrong file, you will have trouble getting anything to work.
My only gripe about this program is that it doesn't show you a progress bar during downloads. But hey, that's okay. It's free, and it works perfectly for downloading waypoints and tracklogs from my Garmin eMap which I can then use with a program like Terrabrowser to display them on a satellite map.
It also apparently works with Magellan GPS models, but I have not tested this.
Free, works, free, and it works. Enough said. -

Okay, great. It's a Darwin binary--not what I expected, but I was tipped off when unzipping it made a usr/bin construct on my desktop. For grins I double-clicked it. It terminated its process without providing any feedback.
There's no documentation, no interface, and it doesn't seem to do anything. Fortunately, it didn't seem to screw up my PowerBook.
Now it's in the trash.
