Actually, it depends a bit on where you shop. Yesterday's newspaper ad for 
Fry's Electronics (located near me in Palo Alto, CA) had these prices:

         512MB PC133 memory - $39.99
         512MB DDR (PC2100) memory - $49.99

I would never base this sort of comparison on prices from one vendor 
(especially not a relatively high-priced one, it would seem). But it does 
seem that the price premium for DDR is dropping around here ... as recently 
as a month ago, DDR cost twice as much as PC133 at Fry's ... so this 
observation may be true soon.
