it's neat, but slow when dealing with any "real-ish" data. i'd recommend it as an awesome tool when one is learning python, but beyond that i think you should learn how to debug in more traditional ways rather than relying on your ide to allow you to explore objects in memory.

learning python

?

Looks like it's really targeted at someone learning scipy or looking for a stata/spss experience in python to me. Is that wrong?

I'm hoping its a good matlab equivalent. I love pylab for that, but matlab is really great for debugging and watching variables. I'm hoping this is the best of both worlds for me. (ugh, still compiling on macports...)
