It would appear that the folks over at Infectus have made a PS3 downgrader, complete with tutorial on how to get it working. As of this writing there has been no documented case (that I have seen) of working and the overwhelming risk of brickage have turned many over at the Official Playstation Boards off to the idea.
To get started, you should download the small software that you can find HERE (http://www.infectus.biz/downloads/InfectusProgrammer%200.0.3.4.rar).

Once you have got everything turn your console ON, connect Infectus to the USB port and start the software!

This may prove useful if an exploit is ever found however.
