Just let me be sure I understand. With a setup similar to the above:

1) "aptitude install PKG1" would be installing PKG1 from testing

2) "aptitude update; aptitude upgrade" would be upgrading packages with 
new releases from testing

3) "aptitude install PKG1/unstable" would upgrade from the current 
testing package PKG1 release to the unstable PKG1 version

In this case, if I use command 2 next time, will it keep on tracking the 
unstable updates to PKG1 or never upgrade it since it only tracks 
testing as default ??

Thank you to all of you for your very kind and knowledgeable help (while 
I find the #debian channel almost useless :().
