The latst "Digital Review" has an add from Caminton for DS5000 memory.  It looks
like a small board with a memory array and some buffer chips, so it's a step
further away from generic simms than the DS3000.  You'll have to check with
them for availability.  I'd expect all the 3'rd party vendors that service the
DS3000 to be working up DS5000 boards, but it takes a little while...
