Lot of useful tools are missing in Google’s version. Also the original supprted exporting 3ds, autoCad dwg, OBJ, VRML, etc. which would be easy to import on blender. Try out http://www.sketchup.com/?id=76 free demo and become sad…. " Another Micro$0.00ft monopoly style...Except maybe on a smaller scale....For NOW! There is no reason whatsoever to remove the Import/Export function, other than to FORCE users to use YOUR format, with your software alone!{Increased funtion with the $$$ version, no doubt!} That reminds me when the Ultra-Crappy Realmedia player first came out! It was the WORST video format around, cornering the software community with a limited "Free" version with exclusive control of the file format's limitations vers the $$$$ version! I appreciate them bringing out a great tool for free(When before it was for sale)but come on, this is 3D software we're talkin' about...It's MEANT to be exported/imported into other 3D apps, for cryin' out loud!

To obtain an export to old Google Earth format, choose it in the export menu, just under the default option. This choice gives a kmz file readable by the script .
