another approach on the same yum, you could try replicating daily all
rpms, saving time, even on a win box:

# wget -nd --mirror -P. \
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/3/i386

then, move all new files to your linux box (to, say /var/rpms/) and
create your own repository and update with 

# createrepo /var/rpms/ 
# yum update
