Also the commercial plugin was made using a commercial Qt license.

Ian has two version the free UIKit, and the commercial version. There are many
differences, in that the commercial uses a couple extra classes he developed to
use the iOS libraries where required by the AppStore (WebKit, multimedia, etc).
Also supporting multitouch and such.

“Embedded” is an broad term and a moving target that always seems to require
clarification. AFAIU Digia wont engage in mobile consumer embedded platform
licensing. Android and iOS could be called ‘leading embedded platforms’ but
are a special mass consumer case and dont generate commercial license revenue.
Digia already has public deals with RIM QNX, WindRiver VxWorks and Greenhills
Integrity for supporting and selling Qt license to custom device makers on
these embedded platforms. Its great that Qt will penetrate these platform
markets too. It may be helpful to remember that Qt “Embedded devices” have
always had runtime distribution fees per device as well as developer licenses..
Im not expecting Digia to be involved in writing or even licensing any
‘official’ or unofficial mobile platform ports.
I am curious about Ian’s IOS plugin commercial licensing corner case though if
anyone can clarify that it could help the discussion.

They aren't embedded.
Digia means QNX, MQX (please!), embedded linux, VxWorks, on PPC, ARM, MIPS, SH,
and the like.

Quoted from digia.com (digia.com/en/Qt/Digia-is-Committed-to-Qt/):
"
Digia is comitted to:
...
- Advancing the cross-platform Qt promise by supporting leading ( !! ) desktop
and embedded platforms
...
"
So we doubtless can expect an official Android and iOS port since they're
leading embedded platforms?
