After buying Jaguar for my Powerbook I haven't upgraded any further. This now leaves me with over 61MB to Download to get it upgraded to 10.2.3. and with 10.2.4 coming soon that will make around 100MB.

My problem is there's so much to download, and I only having a slow connection and a time limit of 5 Hrs with my service provider. I tried upgrading the other day and after 3 Hours had only about 30% done, not leaving enough time to complete the rest. I get disconected after 5Hrs. Generaly this is not a problem as Im normaly not on more than 2 Hrs.

Is there any other way of getting these upgrades without having to go the download route? IE: are they released on a CD of any type.

I don't have acess to broadband, so it 's a CD or Dial up!
Any help would be appreciated.

goto your local Apple store with a blank CD
Or
Download a download manager and download a little bit a night

I just moved into a new apartment and don't even have a landline phone at this moment, not to meantion any kind of internet access.

So I brought my laptop to work and connected it there. Was not too hard and downloaded 100MB worth of different updates in a matter of minutes

You can order a 10.2.3 update CD from Apple for $19.95. I would wait until 10.2.4 is out before getting one though.
