Having trouble ordering from several webshops in Europe (The only want 
to send you parts if you order in huge quantities or if you are a 
company) I've found the following at digikey in the US.

http://search.digikey.com/nl/en/products/SST25VF032B-80-4I-S2AF/SST25VF032B-80-4I-S2AF-ND/2297800
http://search.digikey.com/nl/en/products/W25Q64FVSSIG/W25Q64FVSSIG-ND/2815931

I know they are 8-SOIC but have ordered (and received)  8-SOIC -> 8-DIP 
pcb's so can easily convert between the sockets. I guess these should 
work just fine?
