To the left of the ECT (Power/Normal) button, there is another switch that says Normal/Sport to switch the suspension..

That's not APSSS, that's just different shock settings.

here is a picture of the APSSS in the trunk well on a 3GS:

I think Adjustable Variable Suspension is standard on the more recent 4xx models. It gives you sport mode, for example.

Active Stabilizer Suspension System is, well, active suspension. It actively adjusts the suspension to control body roll and ride comfort.
