That's not a bad idea. I have a real battery on the way (with long leads), so I'm going to try the 'springy leads' approach. Failing that I'll take a stab at soldering it in. Failing that I'm going to go with the 2 AA approach. Next time this battery goes dead, it's the 2 AA's all the way though. :)
For that matter, you can buy any 3.6V lithium battery that has teh leads that hook to pins o the main board and just apply the plug over the old battery leads. Those batteries even come with velcrow.
Also keep in mind that you can twist the leads of a new battery around a needle to make a night owl replacment...
More than enough thoughts regarding this issue and I thnk most of the ones hit in the FAQ.
