It's finally showing up for me now - thanks Lucio for checking.

Still having issues with virtualbox-3.2 repo though on maverick. I get:
: Failed to fetch
http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian/dists/maverick/Release
 Unable to find expected entry  non-free/source/Sources in Meta-index
file (malformed Release file?)

I'll check that tomorrow. Thanks again.
