That book is fine, but is focused on desktop. There are a couple of
books out there focused on Qt and mobile apps. "Beginning Nokia Apps
Development" is about Qt on Symbian and MeeGo and can be had for under
$10 USD.

Also of course the great documentation on the Qt website itself cannot
be overlooked. :)
