After talking with the vendor we ordered it through, they appear to have
burned us copies of the install kit so we would get it in time to install
today (it arrived yesterday) and the real deal is still forthcoming.
Fortunately, this same vendor supplied us a means to get the SP-3 update.

We got the SLES8 trial kit a few months ago. In (or with?) the packet is
a sealed envelope that contains your registration information so you can
register on SuSE's web site for support, including the ability to
download SP3. You download a GZIP'ed tar file, when you then expand to
make an .iso image, which you then mount as a loopback image of a
CD-ROM. It's not very VM-like, but then again, this is Linux, not our
old operating systems. :-)
Good luck,
Nick
