Dealer-only RAM upgrades for the A300's are available from several UK
companies, including PRES, IFEL, Watford Electronics etc.

IFEL are planning to bring out a plug-in RAM upgrade for the A305/A310 in
about a month's time. It will be a version of the 4 or 8 Mb board they
already make. They plan to release it at a special introductory price of
just 299 pounds which is dead cheap!

I've already decided to buy one when they come out, so I'll post more
details at the appropriate time.
