Peak detector

Hey everyone,
I'm trying to make a peak detector to detect the maximum amplitude of a 1kHz to 100kHz - possibly up to 500kHz sine wave. I followed the peak detection circuit here
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Precision_rectifier
but looks like my 4Mhz op amp
http://www.adafruit.com/products/808
can only do peak detection up to about 20Khz or so. I'm using a 1N1418 for the diode.

So looks like I need an op amp with more bandwidth. If that's the case, does anyone know of a good/semi cheap 8pin DIP MOS (single rail psu) op amp to do the job?

Use the improved version from Wikipedia.
It will have higher bandwith and ledd slew rate limits.
