Matt,

That's what I thought, but it was even more expensive if you decided you
wanted the ad free version.  The folks at Google I spoke with countered
with the costs for Google Apps for Business and placed Partner Edition (the
one for ISPs) between the direct consumer Gmail offering and the business
offerings in functionality and pricing.
