Commodore has.  Most Amiga stores sell them for about $45.

    ok, how about "has anybody figured out how to load a 1.3 KS disk
    into RAM on a 500/2000, and then make the system use that instead
    of the KS ROM?"
    
    Note: the Atari ST can do that, why can't we?

    CMI's Kickstart Eliminator Kit contains the latest KS in ROM; however,
    if you insert an earlier version of KickStart, it will load that
    version into the WCS (Writable Control Store).  The WCS otherwise
    gets configured as extra memory.

I'd like to know how you get an Atari-ST to load an Amiga kick-start :-)
