I couldn't find one either, it being some kind of non-standard.
I did however manage to kludge up an adapter to a .1" centers edge connector by sticking copper tape on an appropriatly trimmed piece of pc board using the 
cartridge artwork included with developers kit as a guide.  It's ugly but it
worked like a dream.
If your not in the hurry I was I suggest you draw up and etch your own.
