There is some progress being made on this front -- in svn are a
collection of classes for basic 3d plots (plot3, mesh, surf) but the
interface to these is still under development. We hope they will be
included in the next major release 0.88.
You can see some examples here:

Also, there is a master's student who will be working on extending mpl
3d capabilities as part of her master's project, so expect some basic
functionality in the near future.
We certainly don't aim to compete with VTK or other full-blown 3D
solutions like Mayavi
http://mayavi.sourceforge.net/
http://www.enthought.com/enthought/wiki/MayaVi
http://www.scipy.org/ArndBaecker/MayaVi2
but most agree it would be nice to have some support for basic 3D
plotting in matplotlib.
