Phone jaycar (they have a website) or dick smith. As for wattage, you want at least 65W, higher is ok.

The voltage output of the new PSU must match the voltage output of the new PSU.

The current output of the new PSU must match, or be higher, that the old PSU.

As timestyles said 65w will be ok, but higher will be better, if it is not too much more expensive.
