I think the marker manager is going to be the best fit. Almost all of my markers are going to be clustered in one state.
If you look at http://hardins.com/retail5.htm, there is a ton already and there is going to be more added. I think I have over 1000 total. What really matters is when a person searches their address and the search zooms in and they can see what florists are in their area. I guess my one concern is what would happen if there is a marker manager set up and someone clicks on a florist in the side bar. Would the marker just appear on the map? I guess to take care of that I could try and make it zoom in on items click on the side bar.
