2gb Memory Module for a t42?

Does it even exist? All I see are memory modules that are no larger than 1gb.

Yes, really. According to Thinkwiki:
DDR SO-DIMM modules exist at a maximum of 1GB. You cannot physically install more RAM than the official specs state. Chipset is limited to 2GB.
Collection = T500 - R400 - X300 - X200 - T61 (14" WXGA+) - T61 (14.1" SXGA+) - T60 (15" SXGA+) - X40 - T43p - T43 - T42p - A30P - 600E
