I’m now (finally) starting to actually try get started with python, etc., and aside from being partly interested in the symbian/phone implementation thereof, I am initially just starting off looking into python apps running on windows systems, but aside from an actually installed interpreter, etc., am also just wondering about things like the sort of wrapper possibilities, where you can include some sort of compiled python code in an .exe file etc.

http://www.py2exe.org/index.cgi/Tutorial
Almost all my code gets compiled
you can also include C in your code, or Win32 library calls via ctypes

That should then be able to (hopefully) run on most windows machines as a sort of standalone app, but if I’m totally confused about possibilities, then would also like to know for sure, and also wondering if this might be related to being limited to only certain versions of python, etc.?

there is not a py2exe for Python3 yet, but you can still "freeze" apps and distribute only compiled libraries
http://cx-freeze.sourceforge.net/

Currently have both 2.6 and 3.2 installed on this machine – windows7 32 bit, but also on my other primary machine – windows7 64 bit, but I do also have another windows XP machine that might also want to test/try these things out on.

I stick with 2.6/2.7 for now, as many of the nicest libraries are not ported to 3 yet

 
Alternatively, where’s the best place to start looking for things like this?

http://pypi.python.org/pypi
http://wxpython.org/
