Anyone used a 2GB ram module in a Powerbook?

I noticed a retailer selling a 2GB ram module for Powerbook G4's. Anyone have experience with these?

I know that the 15", for example, is listed as using 2GB of ram max; does anyone know if this is limited by the hardware somehow, or if that's simply because bigger modules weren't available at the time the computer came out?

I always thought that that the maximum was two 1GB sticks because of hardware restrictions. I could be wrong though.

I read that it is possible. I'm guessing the limit is because of the fact there were no 2GB SO-DIMM modules when the PowerBook was first released.

Rich.

How much are those? IIRC they are extremely expensive!

Apparently what I saw that I thought was a 2GB module was actually a 2 x 1GB kit. It wasn't well-specified on the site.
