Existing users, 
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.

SQL & PHP editor for PostgreSQL.

Thanks for your comments about pgEdit. We are working hard on new features and interface improvements for version 1.1.I would like to address a few of your comments.
RE: For $89 you can get Aqua Data Studio for any platform
The price of Aqua Data Studio on their web site is $149.
RE: If you need a decent tool for PostgreSQL on the Mac, Aqua Data Studio
If you can live with the problems on Java software on the Mac and you do more browsing than SQL editing, Aqua Data Studio is fine. pgEdit was developed to address the complete lack of Mac tools that can correctly color PostgreSQL syntax. In particular, I have not found any Mac editor that correctly colors the SQL syntax in stored procedures. Aqua Data Studio does not even color the simplest SQL functions correctly.
