Launched: Google Earth Plug-in 5.1.3506.3999, Google Earth API v1.003

[Roman N (Google Employee)]

Hi all,

Earlier this morning, we launched version 5.1.3506.3999 of the Google
Earth Plug-in, which is compiled against
version 1.003 of the Google Earth API.

Over the next two weeks or so, the entire Google Earth Plug-in install
base will be updated to the new plug-in version. Also, all new plug-in
downloads and installs will be of this new version (meaning you can
jump on it early by uninstalling/reinstalling the plug-in).

Release notes and an updated API reference will be posted soon at the
links below.
