The new OS X App Store is open but no MacENC on there.
Is it going on?

MacENC is not, but GPSNavX 6.0.0 is on there. MacENC will continue to be sold through Kagi and several dealers.
The new app store is great, but has one big downside. That is apps installed prior to the app store have no way of getting the app store updates.
So the only way to get the app store version of an app, then get the app store version updates for free is to repurchase the app on the app store.
Another issue is apps on the app store require OS X 10.6.6 and an Intel Mac. As such we will continue to offer GPSNavX through Kagi for users of older Macs.

If you do want the app store updates then yes you would need to purchase GPSNavX through the app store. Otherwise send us an email and we can send you GPSNavX 6.0.0 link.
