If you're willing to forego Python and embrace Javascript, there are many options, some are fairly easy to get into. Adobe has their PhoneGap system (http://phonegap.com). There are others. They call these hybrid apps. Recently I made a small app using V-Play which is based on QtQuick. Was super easy. The most amount of time was spent figuring out QML GUI layout. Straight QtQuick works decently well too, using the QtCreator IDE. There have been some Python to javascript compilers, or implementations of Python in Javascript. So maybe it's possible to make a hybrid app using Python. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
