I looked at the Google Maps API for adding a simple map display to my web application. Since it's a commercial app I'd need the Premier API which starts at $10,000 per year. Waaaay out of reach for me right now. Does anyone know of a good, affordable alternative?

It would be fairly low-volume geocoding from addresses, movable/zoomable map display and maybe some distance/area calculations in the future. I'd rather not need to maintain my own geodatabase and the API must support SSL.

There are two free alternatives that come to mind. Cloudmade.com and Yahoo Maps!
