You can create standalone .app bundle that includes Python with
bundlebuilder.py. Check the archives of this list for discussion of some
potential problems, there was a thread last week with the word
"bundlebuilder" in the subject.

Alternatively, we just discussed some bundlebuilder features on the
PyObjC mailing list:

http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_id=3082424&forum_id=
4355

(I somehow have to load that page twice before it works)

I've never used wxPython, but I've heard repackaging it is non-trivial.
Maybe there are other people on this list that have experience with
building standalone apps that use wxPython?
