The mod is quite easy to do. The most difficult part is to dessolder the 040. But when i did this mod, it was easier to dessolder the 040, then the 060 from my old Blizzard 1260, now a 1240 one :-D
But you'll need good soldering skills, because you have to change two SMD parts.
You have to change one inductor from it's original position (just step it to the pad aside) and a jumper as well. The inductor changes the supply from 5V to 3.3V, and the jumper changes ths multiplier factor for the 68k.
I can try to borrow my friend's digital camera, to make some photos to show you exactly where these parts are.
Edit: I forgot to mention, that i don't recommend you to put a socket in the PPC. The 68k chip, after dessoldered will still have it's terminals with some soldering. So it'll be difficult to put it in the socket, because of the thicker legs.
And then tere's the price issue, as before stated by Karlos.
