You should be able to get 1mm thick pretty easily, and probably down to
0.5mm quite readily, but I wouldn't want to trust it for stiffness. I would
have thought that 1mm would be the thickness to aim for.

I have a couple of projects in with PCB Train in Newbury at the moment.

Normally I use Olimex, http://www.olimex.com/ but I don't know off hand if
they do thinner than 1.6mm for their prototype PCB, and they are on holiday
for all of august, which is why I'm using this one just down the road, but a
bit more expensive.
