PITA size.   I ended up buying some 40mm fans from quietPC in the UK for 
my cisco switch.  However they went buzzy in about three months.

Little fans have to spin with high RPM to move any air

The best fan I've used is something like this

These things on slow move more air than a small fan revving like a racecar.


Otherwise dealextreme.com has cheap fans,  or you could try South Island
