one thing you want to watch out for, is that mixing different brands of DDR RAM can lead to all sorts of problems; I suggest you get a pair of 256MB Corsair or Kingston RAM.
also, if your motherboard supports it, try and get PC3200 RAM instead of PC2700
512MB Corsair XMS PC3200 - $109
it is far from the fastest in terms of latency, with 3-3-3-8 timings (lower=faster), but like Nubius said, there is very little difference between the RAM with lower latencies. Corsair's XL RAM has 2-2-2-5 timings but costs a lot more
