i don't think the price increases have been terribly drastic yet. but as you see DDR3 more commonly used, the prices or DDR2 will go up.

I remember when I bought DDR2 for my system and it was over $100 per gig. RAM is pretty cheap now.
Besides, DDR2 is getting phased out so it will be getting more expensive.

I paid ~$80 US for my 4 GB. It's an older technology now. I mean look at the price of DDR RAM now. It's not even worth it.
