Where to buy a compact flash adapter?

[alenppc]

Does anyone know where to buy a CF adapter?

I looked in all of the internet stores that I know of, even mycableshop.ca which carries rare items, but I can't find a CF adapter anywhere.

There appear to be loads on ebay, but they are all located in Hong Kong, and I don't really want to buy one from there, with all the hassle and import duties I would have to go through it probably wouldn't be worth it.

Any ideas?

I meant CF->IDE adapters.

MobileSupply recently. They're based in Hong Kong, but the delivery was very fast and the price was low enough that there were no import duties.

Thanks for your input, Matt. I will consider buying from them.

Also what is an average life cycle of a CF card when used as a hard drive?

I suppose it must be really low if you use it with Windows, as windows is constantly (and pointlessly) writing/swapping to the hard drive, but with Amiga I would expect it to be at least a few years.
