Will you eventually have to pay for usage of Google Maps (http://googlegeodevelopers.blogspot.com/2011/10/introduction...) if you go over 25000 views per day?

I'm asking because I'm cooking up a similar concept, and the upcoming price increase of Google Maps makes me a bit hesitant to use them.

The Google Maps Premier page, where my only option is to "Contact Sales" also doesn't seem very friendly to small sites and apps (http://www.google.com/enterprise/earthmaps/maps.html).

This was a hackathon project, so we haven't looked that far into the future quite yet. If we reach that point, then we'll consider all of the existing Map APIs and how well they fit into our application.

Makes sense. I was just curious if anybody has already looked into what makes most sense for this type of usage.
