Python Version for a Newbie [closed]

I am extremely new to python, having started to learn it less than a month ago, but experienced with some other programming languages (primarily C# and SQL). But now that Python 3.0 has been released and is not backwards compatible, what would be the advantages and disadvantages of deciding to focus on Python 3.0 or Python 2.6?

Go with 2.6 since that's what most libraries(pygame, wxpython, django, etc) target.

The differences in 3.0 aren't that huge, so transitioning to it later shouldn't be much of a problem.
