[comp.sys.amiga.hardware] Kickstart Eliminator

I've recently purchased an Amiga 1000 to keep my 2000 company, and as
"compatability insurance" when I upgrade to a 3000 (selling my 2000 in the
process). 

I remember seeing a couple of companies selling something called a Kickstart
Elimator (in fact, that was the brand name of one of them). A side benefit
of using one was that you could reclaim the 256k that Kickstart uses, and
addmem it to the rest of the system memory. 

I've been casually looking to see if such an animal still exists. I figure
that it can't run too much money, and I already have access to a KS 1.2 ROM.
Besides any pointers as to where to find one, I'm interested in practical
experience as to their stability. Please don't recommend that I run out and
buy a Rejuvenator board; the whole point of the 1000 purchase was to keep
costs down (besides the fact that I've always thought it was a neater
looking box than the 2000).
