I found that a IBM Thinkpad power supply works perfectly as an AC adapter for my thinkpad. Strong 16.6V 3.6A switching transformer works nicely, and as I work in IT in a all IBM shop, we have tons of them around. After a week of searching for a replacement for a lost power supply, I realized that I had been carrying one around with me the whole time in my laptop bag.

Don't forget though people, make sure that those PSUs that you are trying out are DC and not AC! Otherwise your player will be taking a long trip to the Netherlands to see Uncle Rob.

And also remember that if you're in the US, support has about 150 US PSUs to get rid of. 15UKP including shipping - order as many as you like.
