Hi,
Thanks for mentioning bpython, which I've never heard of before.
Here's how to get it going with Sage:
flat:~ wstein$ sage -sh
...
$ easy_install bpython
$ bpython
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> x = var('x')
>>> integrate(sin(x)*log(x), x)
-log(x)*cos(x) + integrate(cos(x)/x, x)

Because it's pretty fun to *watch* bpython in use, which is really
different than Ipython or the Sage notebook, I've uploaded a little
screencast:

(this might take a minute until it is "ready")
