Does anyone have any spare ICX098Bl chips for sale

Folks
I'm after a couple of ICX098BL B/W toucam chips to mod some
toucams I'm playing with. Finally figured out that to cool a toucam the best way is to buy a miniature peltier chip and slap it directly under the sensor. Only need about a 1.5w peltier to cool the 100mW (max) sensor to between 25-35 Deg C below ambient. Add a little DC/DC converter from farnell and your done. So now it's time to do another and mount it on to an old SLR camera that's been gathering dust in the cupboard. I'm fairly sure Framos has some but I'm loathe to send my credit card details in this day and age so I'm looking to buy a couple from anyone locally.
Let me know if you have a spare or two and we'll work out the price.
Thanks everyone
Regards
Stephen
