you guys don't have any electronics stores there? you may not have a radioshack, but there's gotta be something. even if it's something still over in Europe so that the shipping is cheaper. I don't know... have you done an online search for something closer?

that's too bad. I think I'd die.

That's the sad truth... Im not going to give up right now, but when i realize that my problem is the parts... i really dunno... i think im going down...

I got one; try Digikey. They're good. They ship worldwide, as well.

If you see something you want, you could have me buy it and forward it to you if you are willing to pay.

But check out digikey; they have tons of stuff and ship worldwide.
