Tkinter is (IMO) easier to learn.  In particular, check out "Thinking
in Tkinter" (google for it); it's an excellent way to learn Tkinter.

Tkinter is also very basic.  wx has many more widgets and controls
available.  wx also looks a lot better.  But the documentation for wx
isn't very good.  wxpython has been evolving -- it started out as a
direct python port of some C++ libraries, and
has been becoming more pythonic as time goes by.  So if you go looking
for example code, you could find something written in the modern,
pythonic style, or you could get something written in the traditional,
C++ style.  Until you learn to recognise the latter and transform it
to the former, you may find learning from the web difficult.

Both Tkinter and wxpython should work across all platforms.
