Hey Andrew,

According to the latest news on the sourceforge page they have moved 
away from sourceforge. Their new web site download page is listed 
below and has newer fedora, ubuntu, suse etc binaries.

http://download.qgis.org/qgis/

If you do want to try and compile this then the latest source tarball 
is 7.9mb (http://download.qgis.org/qgis/src/qgis-0.8.0.tar.gz).

How ever if you don´t normally compile programs then you will probably 
need to download the qt development packages and other things which 
sounds like it would be very painful for you if I understood you 
correctly that it takes you 1 hour to download 10mb.
