Download link for linux version is busted. Here is the correct one (from trial and error):

http://download.jetbrains.com/python/pycharm-community-3.0.t...

I'm fairly new to the Python world but I've been using PyCharm for a couple months now and it is absolutely amazing. JetBrains makes really great products, I've been a huge fan of IntelliJ IDEA (Java) for a few years now - converted many die hard Eclipse users over to it, and they never looked back.

Speaking of linux, has the 64bit version improved at all? Everytime I try it out I can't stand it more than a few minutes and revert to Eclipse. (previous discussion: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5201366).

The title seems misleading - the IDE is not opensource, but they offer free license for opensource projects.

Is this preferable over ipython/pylab notebooks for math/scientific python programming?

Nope, they're now offering PyCharm Community Edition which is free to use for all and open source under the Apache 2 license.

Have you found the link to the source? I can't find it and so curious :)

So they actually did opensource it. Sorry, my mistake. Now the news is even better :)
