You've gotten a lot of good feedback from others but I'll throw in my bit too.
I see the biggest difference between Django and TurboGears as being the type of application problem they were trying to solve. Django was developed by folks who were working on publishing information. Therefore it seems that Django was developed with the bias towards applications that mostly publish information to the user. Getting data from the user, while not hard, seems to have been a lower priority. TurboGears seems more designed for direct interaction where the user is supplying most of the data. The problems that TG seems to want to solve are the more general "web application" kind of problems. If I were writing a CMS or information push kind of app I would certainly look very hard at Django. For more normal application kinds of systems Im looking to TG. Take a look at http://code.djangoproject.com/wiki/DjangoPoweredSites and you'll see that a lot of newspaper and news sites use Django. Looking at http://docs.turbogears.org/1.0/SitesUsingTurboGears and we see far more variety and no "normal" usage. We also see a shorter list w/ TG due in part to it's newness and I suspect that it's used for many "private" projects not generally on the Internet. (That's my main use for it now at work...) Like other's have said, both systems are developing rapidly and both will steal good ideas from the other. While it won't hurt you to learn both, you'll probably want to look hard at the type of application you plan on writing and use that as a guide as to which system you'll use for any given project.
