I'm using PyCharm on a daily basis. It's definitely alpha software, but still very usable. Their Django support is pretty limited right now, but gets a little better with each release. If you have your Django project set up in "The Standard Way™" it does a pretty good job. I don't, so there are quite a few bells and whistles I'm missing out on, but support for non-standard projects is underway. I've seen a few issues on their issue tracker closed over the past week or so that go toward supporting any Django configuration.
JetBrains has made it pretty clear that they are aiming to make PyCharm a Python/Django IDE, meaning support for Django at its core, not as a side-effect of their Python support, or as the result of a 3rd party plugin, but built-in. So definitely worth keeping your eye on. http://youtrack.jetbrains.net/issues/PY If you are confortable with using alpha software for development, I definitely recommend PyCharm. If you want to wait until it's Django support is more robust, and it's more stable, wait until summer to try it. One thing I can definitely recommend staying away from with the current release (94.454) is the hg4idea plugin. It has worked fine with previous builds, but if I have that plugin installed with the 94.454 build it takes over my CPU for about 30 seconds every minute or two. Otherwise, thumbs up! Hope that helps...
