Is there an equivalent to 'intellisense' for Python?
Perhaps i shouldn't admit it but I find having intellisense really speeds up the 'discovery phase' of learning a new language. For instance switching from VB.net to C# was a breeze due to snippets and intellisense helping me along.

The Python extension supports code completion and IntelliSense using the currently selected interpreter. IntelliSense is a general term for a number of features, including intelligent code completion (in-context method and variable suggestions) across all your files and for built-in and third-party modules.
To access the "Refresh DB" button, switch the dropdown selection from "Overview" or "pip" to "IntelliSense".
IntelliSense is a code-completion aid that includes a number of features: List Members, Parameter Info, Quick Info, and Complete Word. These features help you to learn more about the code you're using, keep track of the parameters you're typing, and add calls to properties and methods with only a few keystrokes.

This is standard in Vim 7. There are a number of other very useful plugins for python development in Vim, such as Pyflakes which checks code on the fly and Python_fn.vim which provides functionality for manipulating python indentation & code blocks.

Have a look at python tools for visual studio, they provide code completion (a.k.a intellisense), debugging etc ...
Below is a screenshot of the interactive shell for python showing code completion.
