I switched a bunch of my Yahoo services to Google starting a year or so ago. I also switched my hosting to asmallorange.com.
As part of this process I use Google Apps extensively, including for my email. In fact I run a small business on Google apps.
One thing I have never done though is bought a domain from Google who I believe subcontracts to enom or godaddy. The pricing is $1O which includes full dns management, private registration and domain locking if you need it. Pretty good deal – especially with Google’s name behind it.
Google is actually an ICANN Accredited Registrar. They don’t buy through other registrars.

Well this is what I get when I try to buy a domain at Google:
“Google Apps
Choose one of our partners to register your domain
Google doesn’t register or host domain names. We’ve partnered with a few domain registration partners (registrars) that offer these services because it’s a lot easier to set up a Google Apps account this way. Continue with the pre-selected company or choose another one of our trusted domain registration partners to fulfill your request. Your new domain will be pre-configured to work with Google Apps so that you won’t need to manually modify your DNS settings.
Select a domain registrar:
eNom
GoDaddy.com
