That's definitely an option.

If you like the lamp so much and can't fix it, bypass the electronics
and
replace the socket with a three way one and buy a three way bulb (has
two
filaments). Best: bypass, and use a CFB (compact fluorescent bulb).

Another viable option, but considering what a klutz I am when it comes
to "fixing" things (my motto is "If it ain't broke, fix it till it
is!") the first option sounds better to me. :-)
