I had a look at one last weekend when a large batch arrived for the local
FOSS type geezers that ordered them...

yes python 2.5 and maybe 2.4 is installed, from memory.
gtk seems to be the default environment, IIRR, so pygtk type apps could make
sense to develop, and develop them on your desktop, as openmoko just runs X
