Well, from the API home page
   http://code.google.com/apis/maps/index.html
(as well as other places in the API docs) is a link to 'terms'
   http://code.google.com/apis/maps/terms.html
which includes section 10.9, which as you note, seems to expressly
forbid what you have in mind.

You'd have to ask ;
   http://www.google.com/support/enterprise/bin/request.py?contact_type=gme
 it may not be available via Google at any price due to restrictions
imposed by their suppliers (e.g. TeleAtlas)  who do after all supply
this kind of thing as their main business, and probably won't be
encouraging competition.
