Python Card wraps around wxPython.

wxPython is a wrapper around wxWidgets.  Because of this, it may not
feel very "pythonic."

I personally really like wxPython -- heck it is borderline love! 
wxPython isn't that hard to pick up and the folks on the mailing list
are especially helpful.  wxPython's creator, Robin Dunn doesn't seem
to sleep or eat and is constantly answering questions.  No, I'm
serious Robin doesn't eat or sleep -- I'm still trying to find someone
who has actually met him.  I personally believe he is a robot.

Be warned though, that some people question the
"cross-platformability" of wxPython.  I've been doing GUI stuff
exclusively for windows, so I can't really speak to this.
