Distrib Point in PIndi/Islamabad

I was wondering which shop to go for getting PLUC cds from ???. In pindi I do not see any new CDs released, i.e there is no RH9 update nor is there any CD beyond Mandrake 9.0
Also it'd be great if you guys release CDs with other Open Source software such as OpenOffice and newer KDE, GNOME etc downloaded from the net. The CDs may also contain games, media players and some productivity tools such as newer versions of Postgres, and compilers or even Kernel patches, which do not come standard with distributions. Also it will be quite a relief for people with dialup connections to get CDs for update , maintenance releases etc.
Majority of people use Windows because they get more updates for individual products off-shelf from the market (Even if it is illegal). Having choice to get updates like this can boost some confidence in them and make Linux more popular
