Um, check me if I'm wrong, but if you are going to develop an
application using Qt, whether that application is on the PC or on a
mobile device, you're going to need a **commercial** Qt license.  If you
are going to make profit, then Nokia (rightly) expects to make a profit
as well.

Given the sizable license fee for the commercial use of Qt, I'd see that
as a large obstacle to having a lot of mobile developers wanting to use
it for their $0.99US fart-generating Android application.  Unless I'm
mistaken, the iPhone and Android SDKs are free, so I have to wonder if
the effort on Nokia's part to port Qt to ride atop those would be worth
the return.

           The world needs more cults.  They attract stupidity like a
                magnet attracts metal, and they're self cleaning.
