Default Sony Tri-Wing Screw

I'm trying to fix a Sony PEG, and I'm not having any luck finding the
screwdriver I need. It's a tri-wing, but it's tiny. If it were a
phillips I would call it a 00. Does anyone know where I can find one
of these things? I called all the various departments at sony, but the
highly motivated people who work the phones can't find anything without
a part number.

Thanks,

Sam

The smallest that set has is a number one. Thanks anyway. BTW, you
can get the same thing on ebay for ten bucks, no cool spy cache' though.

Yes, and there are other web suppliers too. It's a SOB to open some of these
things. I've had to weld up special keys more than once.
