Sorry Barry What you say is just about what the Developers reference said.
However, there was nothing I could find on the console page to "enable V2" since on the services page the link *Google Maps API v2<http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/> * brought up the *v3 page*. If there's another page to "enable" a service, I couldn't find it. When I do go back to the API Access page I just get the ID information I showed in my original post. Try it. That's the link. I would *LOVE *to find out I'm making a dumb mistake.
