PySide + QTableView example


Can anyone point me to a simple example of QTableView in PySide?

I found the QTableView docs but unfortunately they don't give an example, and I'm very new to PySide, so I don't even know how to start. (I am very familiar with the JTable in Java Swing, so I know how to use table models.)

    use PySide's QTableView and QAbstractTableModel for tabular data
    sort columns by clicking on the header title
    here applied to solvents commonly used in Chemistry
