Actually, Apple did, sort of. I don't know how it worked, but the biggest RAM chip allowed in the original tangerine and blueberry iBooks was increased by a firmware upgrade from 128MB to 256MB. There wasn't any change to the actual physical computer, though. I would guess they have done this for other models too.
