That's going to get you the FC1 versions of freshrpms packages mixed
with the development/rawhide core packages.  Until packagers start to
support FC3, choices seem to be roll-your-own (probably starting with
FC2 SRPMS) or stick with yum.  Finding apt-enabled FC3 repositories is
probably also a sticky issue.
