Using google maps api to reverse lat / long geocoding from iPhone

I am currently using the google maps reverse geocoding API to convert the long / lat received from the iPhone CoreLocation API into city / state information on a Google engine server.

Will this be considered a violation of the conditions? I have done some research and cannot find a direct answer to this question.

We are currently distributing our iPhone application for free.

According to the Google Terms of Service , you may only use the geocoder with Google Map.

You can not:

use or display Content without an appropriate Google map, unless you are explicitly allowed to do so in the Map API Documentation, Street View API Documentation or through written permission from Google (for example, you should not use geocodes obtained through the Service except in conjunction with Google map, but the Street View API Documentation explicitly allows you to display street view images without a matching Google map)

The above terms are not available in the revised terms of service. Therefore, even Apple coordinates should be able to cancel geocoding from the Google Maps API.
