just got it working...finally in firefox and ie. Basically had to call google.load twice...first to load the javascript files that depended on it being loaded already, and then again with the callback being the initMap function. I'm getting some errors in IE8 but it doesn't prevent it from loading correctly(any thoughts on this?)...here's a snippet:
