I buy mine from www.newark.com. About $20.
I prefer the MPX5xxx series. You feed it 5 volts and get a radiometric
(linear)
output to pressure with a known offset.
Motorola has apparently changed their web site so an overview of
pressure sensors
is harder to find, but see

Make sure you get the DP or P types (ported).

Thanks a LOT Finn... that is more like what I need.
