Neil... take this for what it's worth...
I guess you're thinking of recording your acoustic as you are talking about a mic... Personally, I don't think you'll be able to get a mic in Australia for a hundred bucks that will sound all that much better than just using a cheap computer mic that you could buy from Tandy, Dick Smith or any place that sells computer mics. Computer mics should only cost you around $10 - $14.
What mic were you planning to buy for around $100?... I could be completely wrong about this... but I don't think you'll get anything around that price that you'll find all that impressive.
Anyway, I guess what I'm saying is, you could do both.
Cheers
