If you have 320 meg now you will not see much difference in speed by 
going to 512 but it will help a little.  When I was looking I thought 
about online but with the hassles bringing stuff into Canada I decided 
to buy local as well as service etc is better locally. In the end I 
bought mine from Westworld computers (Apple dealer) in Calgary and they 
were about $10 more then memory express and they even put it in for me. 
I did not have to update firmware or anything else. Mine is Azenram 
512MB AZ A512D65 PC133 SODIMM. Lifetime warranty. I have been using it 
since last November and not one problem.

For me the performance change was nice as my iBook only had a 128meg 
card in it so 194 total and going to 576 does help me a lot.
