I'm not sure I'd pinch my nose over the cost of PyQt, but the cost of PyQt is pretty negligible.
The problem is the cost of Qt itself for commercial development - unless I'm misreading the Qt website I might choke and drown on the cost of a developer license for Qt ("1x Qt for Application Development ($350/Interval)") and (" This subscription is automatically invoiced at 1 months Intervals").
Maybe it's badly-written English confusing me, but that (and other info on their site) sounds suspiciously like "Developing commercially for Qt and being able to do maintenance releases requires a $350/month developer license." Oh, and their licensing FAQ specifically says that you CANNOT start on the LGPL version and change to the commercial license without prior permission from them.
Maybe it's just me, but if I'm going to be expected to spend $4200/year/developer (or "contact us" for a perpetual agreement), maybe I'd be better off spending a little money first checking out the other alternatives.
