pyqt4 reading values from rows of QTableWidget

Hi,
I am new to pyqt and have been looking for examples of how to iterate through a QTableWidget to get the values. I can't seem to find anything online(probaly looking for the wrong keywords). Each row of my table consists of a default text field in the first column and comboBoxes in the second and third columns. I need to iterate through each row get the string from the first column and the option picked in each combobox. Any simple examples would be much appreciated
Thanks in advance

ok ... after a few hours I think I have figured it out...
the function that reads the table is like so ..

Code:

---

def addNewPasses(self):
		allRows = self.ui.tableWidget.rowCount()
		for row in xrange(0,allRows):
			twi0 = self.ui.tableWidget.item(row,0)
			twi1 = self.ui.tableWidget.cellWidget(row,1)
			twi2 = self.ui.tableWidget.cellWidget(row,2)
			print twi0.text()+' '+twi1.currentText()+' '+twi2.currentText()

if there is a better more streamlined way let me know!
