You can still get them, but you might not like the price.  Futurlec @
$US2.45 - http://www.futurlec.com/Linear/LM3909Npr.shtml

Anyone know what chip bicycle flashers use?  They're 1.5v, blink AND have
on/off.  Must be billions of the buggers made, but buying one in a DIP or
SMT (as opposed to 1,000,000 for chip-on-board) is a bit hard.
