I like http://www.crucial.com. They guarantee compatibility (when you use their system adviser) and offer a lifetime warranty. Their customer service is excellent too. Highly recommended.

I believe your particular model only has one user-accessible RAM slot.

So it looks like you can add one 1GB stick for a total of 1280MB of RAM. The particular RAM you need is a 200-pin SO-DIMM PC2700 (DDR333).

Newegg is a great place to look for RAM as they have a wide selection and great prices.

Make sure to put the memory in pretty firmly. When I put 1gb in my ibook I thought I could finesse it in there. I had to push hard to get it to click and thought I broke something. Lesson: Be stern, but fair.

It might seem simple, but we see an incredible amount of people post here about spills. Keep drinks and other liquids away from your expensive electronics!
