phpPgAdmin is free - Version: 1.1b2, 5/16/2005 06:41AM PST

The asking price for pgEdit automatically puts this in the skeptic's "maybe later" bucket for me. phpPgAdmin, without syntax coloring, is free by comparison, and does enough (a mere fraction of the functions implemented in phpMyAdmin for MySQL, granted, but still signifantly usable). Syntax coloring is neat, I suppose, but the whole point of writing a database client is to automate SQL generation so mere humans don't have to do it. Especially in clients that work across platforms, such as Oracle, MySQL and PostgreSQL, each of which share quirky, picayune little differences in comma placements, etc., that make $64, $89 or $150 or even $1500 worth the price, depending on the day's aggravation level.
Not sure about the point of this.... especially at the price

This software seems very unintuative and not very powerful. I can't actually see why they say 'power tools for postgreSQL' as the strap line as it just doesn't seem to do anything.
And $65... per platform? Are they joking? For $89 you can get Aqua Data Studio for any platform and get a really decent bit of software which does a load more than this feeble application will do and works with lots of other databases besides PostgreSQL, but works extremely well with PostgreSQL all the same (better than pgEdit).
If you need a decent tool for PostgreSQL on the Mac, Aqua Data Studio is pretty well all you need, has fantastic support and is very good value for money. pgEdit on the other hand is unintuitive, seriously lacking a good feature set and is over priced.
