iPad and other tablet are touch screen and web app work just great on them. I'm mostly suggesting web because it would free from any link to any os and/or hardware. Being a web dev, I see HTML/CSS much more powerful than swing (I was coding in swing 15years ago).

Since I am not a Java guy I was wondering if Python (wxPython or anything else) would be something to do a quick comparison. We don't have any Java programmers, but I just wanted to know if people have had good experiences with Python GUI toolkits vs Swing.
