Found more information/clarification on ram ceilings for the macbook pro's.
Quote:
The MacBook Pro (15-inch Core 2 Duo) and MacBook Pro (17-inch Core 2 Duo) notebooks have two SDRAM slots in the bottom of the computer, and they come with at least 1 GB DDR2 SDRAM installed into the bottom slot.
Although these notebooks will accept up to a 2 GB SO-DIMM in each of the two memory slots, the MacBook Pro will only support 3 GB total memory. If you want to maximize the amount of SDRAM in your computer, install a 2 GB SO-DIMM in one slot and a 1GB SO-DIMM in the other.
You can use Small-Outline Dual Inline Memory Modules (SO-DIMMS) that meet all of these criteria:
* PC2-5300
* unbuffered
* nonparity
* 200-pin
* 667 MHz
* DDR2 SDRAM
You can use RAM module sizes of 1 GB or 2GB in the top or bottom slots.

I posted this information because everything else I had found pertained to older models and was thus out of date.
Here are the two gig sticks:
