Google is limiting the number of users allowed on its very popular and somehow successful Google Apps which includes an own branded Gmail. I got the email below fromm them today saying henceforth new users with more than 10 users will have to use the Google App for business (in other words, pay for using the apps).

Hello,

We recently announced upcoming changes to the maximum number of users for Google Apps. We want to let you know that, as a current customer, the changes will not affect you.
As of May 10, any organisation that signs up for a new account will be required to use the paid Google Apps for Business product in order to create more than 10 users. We honor our commitment to all existing customers and will allow you to add more than 10 users to your account for at no additional charge, based on the limit in place when you joined us.
Sincerely,

The Google Apps Team
