The latest edition of Slater 3X is 1989.  I got mine at a bookstore
in Alexandria VA (name of bookstore escapes me, but it was something
cute like "One Good Tern"...).  I have also seen it in other bookstores
since then.  Almost all of the Aussie birders I ran into were using
this book, and all of them said that they had the Pizzey book as
well but didn't use it anymore.  I don't have a catalog handy, but 
another good source for field guides and bird-finding guides is 
Patricia Ledlie Booksellers, Inc, in Buckfield Maine (207-336-2778).
If you can, you should try to find the book you want before you leave,
since the long plane ride over there gives you a chance to read it
(even memorize it, probably).
