I think it is pretty obvious that they are also going to show ads in exchange for the free internet access. It's a No Brainer...and, in my opinion, totally worth it to the consumer.

Before getting all excited over this, let's not forget that other companies tried (and failed) at this, such as NetZero. Another thing to consider is that G does not at present have much of a buildout of subscriber infrastructure. Other ISPs do, and can implement ad-supported Internet access if they so choose. So G has quite a bit of competition in this area.
