We had the same experience.  We originally bought RAM elsewhere only to find
out that only the first 64 of 128 was seen by the board.  Reluctantly, we
bought a second chip direct from Advantech and were pleasantly surprised at
the price.  I would suggest that due to nuances in RAM compatibility, anyone
who gets the Advantech boards just buy their RAM from them as well.

Jason
