No, that is not true. Google Apps for Edu does not have *any* e-discovery
services in the free product. If you want e-discovery, you must buy Google's
Postini "message discovery" service, or a product from a third party
provider. They do offer a steep discount for Edu customers.

I heard a rumor that Google charges over $1000 for each e-discovery request
for Google Apps.  Is this true?

We are planning to offer Google Docs and Sites to our users, so I would
like to know if there will be any unanticipated costs in this regard.
