There's a pretty good chance that the chip is soldered onto the
motherboard.  Have you opened up the laptop to check if the video
controller is removable?

Check B&B Computers in Toronto, ON, Canada.  Phone #: (416) 657-2552.

They stock all kinds of used notebooks as well as parts.  They do repairs too. 
And they export to other countries.

There is also one other place I know of in Toronto, called A-1 Electronics,
although they are more of a laptop graveyard (no guarantee the stuff you get
there even works).

Try 

http://www.teamexcess.com/

They sometimes liquidate Dell equipment.  You might have to call them
directly as I don't think I've ever seen specific laptop parts on the site
other than things like power adapters and such.  Or they might have a dead
3800 they could sell you cheap.
