eBay USA has them. I searched "Apple M0100":http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p5197.m570.l1313&_nkw=apple+m0100&_sacat=See-All-Categories.
There's probably more listed under different names. That search turned up listings costing less than a new mouse from The Apple Store at least... It's small so international shipping probably wouldn't be horrible.

You could also try wanted ad in The Trading Post here. I wish I had one to spare.

Good luck!

Thanks TheIanMan85, I'll broaden my scope for looking, thanks for the part number, should help in searches too! (Though some searches bring up butchered M0100s which is slightly annoying!)

A happy bong. No picture. The picture had been flickering on and off before it went into the loft (>10 years ago!) so I was expecting this.Tapping the side and the top I briefly got the '?' floppy icon.

This is extremely common and is usually a bad solder joint at pin 1 on the analog board (vertical board on the left) connector for the cable which connects the logic board to the analog board. Pin 1 is the pin all by itself with a blank position between it and the rest of the pins on the connector.

Remove the old solder with a soldering pencil and desoldering braid or a suction tool, and apply fresh new solder.

Thanks trag, I'll get it open and have a look.
