There are a number of other implementations around.  For example:  PyGreSQL, 
PoPy, and others.  PyGreSQL is part of the PostgreSQL distribution.  Links to 
others can be found at http://www.python.org/topics/database/modules.html.  
You can also look in the Vaults of Parnassus at http://www.vex.net/parnassus.  
Some are faster than others, and there are differing degrees of compliance 
with the DB-API 2.0 specifications.  Which one you chose will depend on your 
needs and requirements.  I can't give you any details about the other packages 
since I haven't looked at the lately so any comparisons I might make would 
likely contain out-dated information.
