I have recently discovered that this type of switch is made by Omron and is 
one of their B3F series  The part numbers are
		 
		 Standard (.3*10^6 operations) B3F-4000

		 Long Life (10*10^6 operations) B3F-5000

		 Gold Plated (10*10^6 operations) B3F-5001

Yes I realize that the last two have the same life, but the gold switch is touted as 'high reliability'.

Omron's Canadian number is 416-298-9988 and they are distributed by Future/
Active components, Zentronics and Prelco. Omron also has a U.S. office in 
Schaumburg Ill USA. Phone # unknown, and offices in many major cities 
worldwide.

DISCLAIMER: I am not connected to Omron in any way, have just received their 
catalog and haven't actually purchased any switches yet.
