Does the update program in Mandrake not automatically update your KDE? If it dosent you can use Apt-get to get the new version.

10.1 comes with 3.2

however there is a beta edition of kde 3.3.0
included on the powerpack dvd.
i dont recommend it though
3.2.3 is the forth revision and is far more stable than the first revision of kde 3.3.0.

I had to reinstall 10.1 when i thought 3.3.0 was a good idea.

god i hate it when im wrong

10.1 comes with 3.2 although there were some people who made their own KDE3.3 RPMs for 10.1 (Thac did I think). Using apt will not make any difference as apt does the exact same thing as urpmi and works off the exact same repositories.
