Default power brick replacement

hey peeps,

Somehow I have 'misplaced' the power brick for my EeePC 900. It's really confusing, as i still have the power point end, but not the transformer / brick end.

What are my options? Replacement brick from Dick Smith / jaycar etc?
Purchase an OEM replacement (100 bucks according to staticice)?

If I was to go for the universal replacement option, I guess i'll need the specs from the original brick. Can any 900 owners out there scan the sticker o teh brick for me? It would be a huge help.

Cheers for any help you guys can give, I miss my little toy!

R.

does it state the amp rating, or a wattage?

Ebay sell them Im sure. Ive bought a few in my time, just make sure that the amp/voltage/pin is all the same size (and the polarity if that matters, im not sure if thats the case with all laptops)
