Microsoft Office apps coming to iOS and Android?
A native Microsoft Office app could be available on both iOS and Android devices in early 2013, if reports are correct. A Microsoft product manager for the Czech Republic mentioned the app in a press release, suggesting March of next year as the release date.
There have been rumours of an Office app for the iPad, but the press release suggests that it might also be available for the iPhone and iPod Touch (plus Android phones as well as tablets).
As to what the app will offer, we’re left to guess. It seems likely that Office, PowerPoint and Excel functionality would all be supported, but we wouldn’t bet on Outlook.
Would you use an Office app on your iPhone or Samsung Galaxy S3? Do you want one? Let us know in the comments below.

if I know microsoft at all, it will probably end up eating a healthy chunk of processor power and battery. so - the only case I'd see an use to it is if it was significantly better yet less resource-hungry than free third party office apps already existing on app stores.
