Does anyone have any idea how much it would cost to upgrade my iBook from 128 Ram to 256?

If you're adding a new DIMM, you might as well go for a full 512MB stick. You're going to be a lot happier in the short and the long run, and it's not going to cost a whole lot more than a 128MB stick.
And, make sure you get high quality RAM. I personally recommend SimpleTech and Crucial.

well, that depends on the Ibook. If its the earlier "clamshell" models, then a 512 stick won't work. rob

Maybe it will, maybe it won't. It's certainly not a RAM controller limitation.
