Actually, I don't know if it is true, but I wasn't happy with Rails the last time around, and I want to learn something different.

If you really wanted to try something 'out there' you could fiddle around with Erlang, but that's probably more fiddling for fiddling's sake than 'getting stuff done'. I think for most people, Ruby, Python, and others like them are where the sweet spot is in terms of productivity.
