I have no programming experience at all. I do know what I would like in an app and I have ideas that I would like to see done but without having other people do all the work.
I'm thinking QT would be good but I am curious to know if I should know something else before I start with it-e.g. C, C++, python(I think). Is QT a language all to itself? I was impressed with the QT weather example in the extras-devel and since I am confident I am ready I would just like someone to point me in the right direction. If QT takes off I'm thinking it would be nice to develop for the n900 and have everyone else use it because they find it useful on their device also. Don't get me wrong, I do plan on partnering with people and producing commercial grades apps and making money like ten years from now. But I would like to bless the community like I have been by the overclocking forum(lehto, titan, the other guy), to the fm transmitter dude, and to just everybody solving problems.

I have no experience at all. I do troubleshoot pcs and can take one apart and build it but no programming experience. I am familiar with windows 7, xp, vista. Can you help?
