It looks like you're not allowed to write code with the LGPL version
and then switch to the commercial Qt at a later time:

>From http://qt.nokia.com/products/licensing :

You must purchase a Qt Commercial Developer License from us or from one
of our authorized resellers before you start developing commercial
software. The Qt  Commercial Developer License  does not allow the
incorporation of code developed with the Qt GNU LGPL v. 2.1 or GNU GPL
v. 3.0 license versions into a commercial product.
