This will give mobile app developers a great opportunity to reach the global market with their application or service, on Symbian and Maemo devices.  Qt, application development for Symbian and Maemo mobile device platforms is a far more productive than with previous technologies; With Qt developer will be able to cover both platforms with same or almost the same code base with a true cross-platform implementation. Furthermore, if  he wish, the same code base can be used, for example, for Windows-, Mac-, or Linux-based desktop versions of the application. Qt is truly a full-scale cross-platform application framework.
