A while back Debian renamed their kernel packages, to be
"linux-*" rather than "kernel-*" so you might have better luck
search for those.

Right now Debian unstable has only:

    linux-image-2.6.18-*
    linux-source-2.6.18
    linux-headers-2.6.18


If you wait enough time .19 will be available, but I'd guess
this is a low priority prior to the release of etch.

Probably the best thing to do is to build your own packages if
you want something specific. With the "kernel-package" you can
easily create your own linux-* packages, headers, modules and image
with a simple command.
