Hi
You could set up another SUS server in your non-Internet connected
network.
When the Internet-connected SUS server have downloaded all
the updates from the Internet, you can copy the SUS content
of this server (using some form of removable media e.g. CD-ROM
or DVD) to the offline SUS server.
That would be the "Manually-Configured Content Distribution Point" part of the
chapter "Synchronizing Content With Another Server Running Software Update
Services or Manually-Configured Content Distribution Point" in
SUS_Deployguide_sp1.doc if I am not mistaken.
Note that it is a error in the documentation:
http://groups.google.com/groups?threadm=074901c2e895%2400f8c630%24a101280a%40phx.gbl
Here is another way it looks like:

Download link for "Software Update Services Deployment White Paper"
(SUS_Deployguide_sp1.doc) can be found under "More Information" at
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserversystem/sus/default.mspx
Fyi, there is a separate newsgroup for SUS:
microsoft.public.softwareupdatesvcs
news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.softwareupdatesvcs
URL to the group softwareupdatesvcs for those who uses the Web
interface to access the newsgroups:
