If you are looking for a cooler looking debugger that does completion and syntax highlighting you might want to take a look at pdb++. http://pypi.python.org/pypi/pdbpp/
It's a drop in replacement for pdb. So you can continue to use
import pdb; pdb.set_trace()
and it'll drop you into the pdb++ prompt.
