Custom cable manufacturer for small jumpers

I am using a product which uses a 1.0mm header as shown at:  
http://www.jst-mfg.com/product/pdf/eSH.pdf

The product actually comes with a short cable, but the cable is too
short (2 inches) for my application.   Plus, it also requires a surface
mount connector on the other end (no THT version of the header is
available).  

I would like to find a company that can or will create me a short (3 or
so inches) cable which goes from this connector to something a bit more
useful - perhaps a 10 pin dual row header or similar.   This will be an
ongoing order - say 500 every 6 months or so.

My existing relationships with cable manufacturers are for more
traditional "larger" molded cables, and they don't seem willing or able
to make such a cable for me.  So I'm looking for another vendor.  
Unfortunately my google searches returns hundreds of hits, with very few
real solutions - most don't seem to do this type of work.

Any ideas for such a cable manufacturer?

If you could live with the 2 inch you could probably crimp a 1mm spacing
connector on the cable? Going from there, a small PCB could connect to
whatever you prefer next..

I've also been using very small PCB-wire connectors lately, and I chose Hirose DF13 connectors since Digikey provides a custom cable crimping service for these.  Cost is reasonable (in 250 - 500 piece quantities), and the connectors do have through-hole versions available.  The DF13 is 1.25mm pitch IIRC, and the crimped cables are here... http://dkc3.digikey.com/PDF/T083/0115-0116.pdf

Cheers,

Looking for a pointer for a chart or listing of the frequency allocations in the land down under.  I have a nice chart for Europe, so looking for this one.

Alan,
    After a bit of looking around here in Aussie Land, I found this
link:
http://www.radioelectronicschool.net/files/downloads/frequencyallocations.pdf
I hope it is what you are after. It describes all the radio frequencies
in use here in Australia. :)

Cheers,
       Dave...
