I just went to iomega.com and did locate it.  One possible difference, the
first webpage gave me geographical choices.  I picked "North America".
Using their search tool for "autoloader 1000" then gave me many hits.
Here is a horrid one -- got to learn to use "tinyurl" :)

    http://www.iomega.com/na/products/product_detail.jsp
      ?PRODUCT%3C%3Eprd_id=21365191&FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id
      =16006169&ASSORTMENT%3C%3East_id=63191

That is one long url I've split.  The original had no whitespace.
