	What I do - 

wget -m -r -l 1 -A deb -R gz,gif -t 0 -b -c -nd 
http://deadbeast.net/~branden/phase1

	-m = mirroring options (check dates, doesn't dl multiple copies)
	-r = recursive -l 1 = recurse 1 level
	-A = accept .deb files -R = reject .gz .gif files
	-t 0 = never give up
	-b = work in the background
	-c = continue partially downloaded files
	-nd = don't create directories
