Here is a UK mirror with all of the F9 beta rpm packages. 

http://ftp.linux.org.uk/pub/distributions/fedora/linux/releases/test/9-Beta/Fedora/i386/os/Packages/

Using your browser, go to the site and find the package you want.  Right 
click and select save as, saving it to a location on your PC.  Then burn 
it to a CD and carry it over to the laptop and install it using rpm -Uvh 
rpmname as root.

That should do it.
