The Google Maps static API doesn't let you pass in a bounding box, it lets you pas in a 'center and zoom'. The resulting tile will not always be centered exactly on that point such that it can be tiled, based on what I understand: Requests are still based around a grid, it's just not one that's obvious, iiuc. That said, I have no idea if this is within the Terms of Use. It also has other side effects; Google logo on each tile, etc. so it's not a great solution even if it does work, but would probably be better for desktop solutions which have a single view that they want to display data over, as I understand it.
