We ran into the same problem a few weeks ago. If you are very short on time (we were on our way to an event with the robot when we realized that we didn't have the power supply!), you can pick up a suitable replacement at Radio Shack for about $17-18. Just be sure that the power rating is sufficient - 1500mA preferred, 1200mA absolute minimum. If you go below 1500mA, the performance and range of the transmitter becomes questionable.
