Actually I don't really understand the api issue as the latest version of the 
google api says that there is no api key needed.

What I want to do is reverse geocode a large number of lat long pairs, I don't 
want to display them particularly and certainly not put them on a website, I am 
just doing data analysis.  I understand there is a limit of 2,500 lat long 
pairs per day on google, I seem to recall when I looked into this a year or so 
ago the limit was higher than this.  Wonder if there is a way of putting in 
some kind of batch command that will send this number in per day for a month or 
so or until all the ones I need to reverse geocode have been done.

This is obviously much slower than using detailed country outlines in the gis 
to achieve country id for the points.  Does anyone know how accurate the 
reverse geocoded data is for country ID (or the more detailed info on the 
address), it seems to be very accurate so they must have extremely detailed 
country outlines, much more detailed than are freely available?
