Any small standalone pc shop should have one
have a look in the yellow pages to see if there are any pc shops near you
or buy one of fleabay.
Hope this helps.
you could make one if you had some old cables around? If remember it is only three wires. see the pic

It should be 9-pin Female to 9-pin Female!
You could also get them on ebay of you don't need it immediately...only £2.

I have got a one but my serial port is set at com 1 and I can't choose com 1 on the image flash assistant, it has a line of com 1 but I'm presuming these are from 10 to 19 and it just can't display the second number. alas numbers 2 to 9 are bieng used.
