you might be able to get one in/from switzerland. it's illegal to sell
dvd-players with region code there (legally bought DVD-Player + legally
bought DVD -> you must not be disallowed to play it), so chances are
this counts for DVD drives to.

no warranty for my words whatsoever, and I don't know about legal
problems which might arise with that, and I am not a lawyer :)
