It's called the "MEGACHIP 2000" and it is sold by the Grapevine Group.  It's
actually small board with the new Agnus and other stuff required to give you 2
megs chip ram.  It plugs into the Agnus socket on the motherboard.  It does
auto-configure so nothing special is required after completing the
installation.  I've had no problems with it so far.  I have no idea why it
won't work on the 500.  Supposedly, this thing will work with all cards except
the Midget Racer.
