David,

I would say the prospects are high to have something for you in 6 weeks.  The 
new version of Rtree in svn is completely ctypes based, and we are waiting on a 
new release of libspatialindex (builds and works completely fine on windows as 
well) before kicking out the new Rtree release.  After that, it should be as 
simple as installing the egg or running the .exe (it'll be pure Python).  I 
will build a windows installer that includes libspatialindex dlls as well.
