Just imagine how many similar missed opportunities for Maemo/N900 there might have been! :(

Yeah, this is (I think) the biggest reason why Nokia decided to support Qt after all -- it gave them a fighting chance to acquire and keep developers. Once you've learned how to do things the Qt way, you can immediately use that knowledge to write code for Unix, Windows, OS X, Maemo, Symbian, Harmattan, Sailfish, Android... Anything that has an appropriate Qt toolchain available. (Yeah, I've kind of become a believer myself. :) )
