Phil,
One thing you want to think about, especially if you plan to replace the tile, is what caused that crack? Movement (subfloor) is high on that list (unless you dropped something on the tile) and will have to be addressed unless you want a similar crack in the replacement tile.

The DIY network recommends finding a matching paint to fill the crack with. How to Repair Cracked Tiles : How-To : DIY Network

Depending on the gap in the crack, I would take painters tape and place it as close to the crack on both sides then use a 2 part epoxy and push it down into the crack and level it the best you can. If a small crack, use super glue pushed down into the crack. Eiither way you may still see the crack and it would be easiest to replace that piece of tile.
