And if you do that, you'll probably get best performance if you switch 
your mirror to use Internode's mirror site.  I'm not sure if it's 
different for the netbook edition, but for Ubuntu desktop, choose System 
-> Administration -> Software -> Ubuntu Software -> Download from: -> 
Other... -> mirror.internode.on.net, then close the Software Sources 
dialog and allow it to reload the package information.

As an aside, which ISP do you use?  Many responsible ISPs in Australia 
run mirrors of Ubuntu.  Check out that same list
