I've looked at it briefly in the past, and it seemed to me to be just a very Java-like language with some built-in graphical helper objects. I assumed it was designed for teaching basic graphical composition concepts to university-level fine arts students, and that its major appeal is the high-quality of the visuals produced by the graphical helper objects. I do agree that Squeak has a tremendous learning curve for someone already familiar with mainstream programming, or who wants to do much beyond the standard demos (as nice as they are). I would love to see eToys in Python.
