This is what I did:

sudo apt-get install -y zsync
zsync http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/lucid-desktop-i386.iso.zsync
mv lucid-desktop-i386.iso.zs-old lucid-desktop-i386.iso.03-22

Took about 10 minutes and I had a new copy:

$ ls -lA
total 1388648
-rw------- 1 rwcitek rwcitek 710862848 2010-03-23 18:12 lucid-desktop-i386.iso
-rw-r--r-- 1 rwcitek rwcitek 709707776 2010-03-22 04:13
lucid-desktop-i386.iso.03-22

Regards,
