Hi,
I usually use wxpython for my GUI-needs, but given the considerations
you mention, I'd check, whether the builtin tkinter and ttk might be
appropriate for this task.
I would somehow expect the least portability problems with this gui toolkit.
There is a Notebook widget in ttk:
http://docs.python.org/3.3/library/tkinter.ttk.html#tkinter.ttk.Notebook
or
http://docs.python.org/2/library/ttk.html#ttk.Notebook
for python 2.7

tkinter/ttk can be quite capable and (with some care) nice-looking too;
see, e.g.:
