Right now I have no ahost records set in Godaddy. I read something that said I should set it to 64.202.189.170, but I think that's for the case of domain name forwarding, NOT mapping, and that's not what I want. I already added my domain name to GAE and confirmed my ownership of the domain name. I also already added www to GAE and added a cname record of www pointing to ghs.google.com.

Then I tried access www.mydomain.com but it keeps forwarding to myappname.appspot.com.

Does anyone have any suggestions about what to do other than wait 48 hours? Should I have an ahost record set? If so what should I set it to?

PS: I read over this Q&A, https://stackoverflow.com/questions/817809/how-to-use-google-app-engine-with-my-own-domain-not-subdomain.

You should not set A records to static IPs for App Engine. Set a CNAME for the 'www' subdomain to ghs.google.com, as you say you have, ensure everything is configured correctly in Google Apps, and give it 24 hours or so to make sure everything's propagated. If you want the 'naked' domain to redirect to the www domain, use Godaddy's redirection features to achieve this.
