I think it really depends on how fast you need a solution, how much time you
have, and the fun-factor involved. Qt is a very nice GUI framework, but it
does have a bit of a learning curve. If you choose to go down this path, I'd
suggest picking up the PyQt book.

Another alternative would be to take a look at either Bento, or its big
brother, FileMaker. The cost is obviously higher, but Filemaker in
particular is designed for this sort of application.
