Yup, I'm one of them - done so for several of my machines so far (U2, U10, IPX), more to follow once I find the time. I've based my own DIY on this particular tutorial http://www.giga.nl/gigawa.lt/Sun_NVRAM.html, but there are others. My first attempt looks like this: http://www.ribbrock.org/PhotoGallery/NVRAM-AXi - later, I used different holders for the CR2032 cell which I can glue onto the back of the NVRAM - makes it even neater.
