I'm sure you'll get as many opinions on this as there are libraries.
However, I recently faced the same choice, and settled on wxPython.
I've been very impressed with the quality and "nativeness" that's
achievable with wx apps. You'll find a number of demos with the
wxPython distribution (already installed on your machine, if you're
using OS X 10.5), and it's well worth running them to give you a feel
for what it can do.

In addition to the quality apparent to the end-user (which I think is
the most important thing), I find the wx API to be quite sensible and
easy to work with too.

And the really cool thing about wxPython is that it has a fun and
helpful community. Be sure to join the wxPython mailing list if you go
with this toolkit. You'll learn a lot there.
