The zesting tool looks cool - I've got to look for one. In the meantime, I just use the finest part of my grater - the same thing I use to grate carrots, for example. You get "grates" rather than strips, but that seems to do okay in the recipes.

Also (don't tell anyone I suggested this), you can buy dried lemon peel and dried orange peel in the spice rack at your grocery store - I'm not sure about dried lime peel. It super easy - obviously - and you could use the dried until you get hold of your zester. According to my big, fat cookbook:

1 lemon yields 2 teaspoons shredded peel
1 lime yields 1-1/2 teaspoons shredded peel
1 orange yields 4 teaspoons shredded peel

The dried peel might not be as flavorful as the fresh, so you could try upping the amount a little.
