Doesn't look like it really solves the problem all that much. If you 
want one platform (e.g. just linux or Just windows) it costs $3300 per 
developer for Qt. ($6600 per developer if you want to target three 
platforms).

This is probably more expensive for a 5 seat than GtkAda (I don't have 
any quotes for GtkAda so who knows...Also it may be that you can't get 
GtkAda from AdaCore without also getting GNAT first).

Still, this is not the $90 tool that everyone seems to think that 
everyone else is using.
