And yes, he is right. AMD64 is now part on the official mirrors for
unstable and packages start propagating to testing also.

The correct entries for sources.list for unstable are (add contrib and
non-free to your liking).
deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ unstable main
deb-src http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ unstable main
About your concerns if aptitude will automatically grab AMD64 packages
or if grabs the i386 ones, just try dpkg-architecture -qDEB_HOST_ARCH
and look if it sais "amd64" or "i386".
Note that for Sarge, you continue to use your old entries in
sources.list.
