wxPython is not the easiest to use, but it is one of the most powerful
GUI options.  Run the demo.py file in the wxPython demo folder to see.

If you are using Linux though, you might also try PyGTK.

Some people have started projects to make easier-to-use interfaces to
wxPython:

http://www.anygui.org/ - barely started, not updated in a long time
