As for the "Dallas-sandwich-chips", 2 days ago I have done the deed and excavated the expoxy whith both coin cells in it with a dremel and had the bare PCB. The quarz oscillator got damaged in the process, so I soldered a new one in. Then I attached 2 cables with a coin cell holder. In the end the thing looks very clean, much cleaner than in the image. I dared to do this, because I had 2 times success with my Indigo2s (see picture).

So If my Crimson works fine with this hack, I can offer to repeat the process on your Dallas chip, now that I know whats inside the layer of epoxy.

The NVRAM has two parts: the RTC with embedded batteries and an SRAM on top of it (with the SONY logo).

Where does the SRAM go now?
