QuickOffice connect Mobile Suite Now Available For Android
Quickoffice Connect™ Mobile Suite is the FIRST and ONLY full-featured Microsoft® Office productivity suite for Android devices that enables you to view and edit Microsoft® Word, Excel & PowerPoint files and have integrated access to multiple remote storage providers. The Connected File Manager provides you with the ability to remotely access, transfer, share and manage documents sitting on Google Docs, Dropbox, Box.net and Apple MobileMe, right from inside the suite.
Quickoffice has been shipping preloaded on plenty of Android phones already, the Nexus One, Droid Incredible, Droid Eris, HTC Magic, Sprint’s EVO 4G, Motorola’s CLIQ and DEXT among them, and if thats you then the upgrade to full editing plus cloud access is a purchase from the Android Market at an introductory $14.99. UK folks, thats an introductory £10.40 over there. Introductory, so we wouldnt sit on it for weeks.
You’ll need Donut 1.6 or Eclair 2.0/2.1 for it. Office 97 through 2008 Word, Excel and PowerPoint files open and edit, PDFs are view only, and email attachments open straight into the suite. Spreadsheet folks get 140 Excel functions, and on 2.0 and above theres multi touch zoom and flick scrolling. French, German, Italian and Spanish are in there as well. We’ll give it a proper run on an Eclair handset this week, so stay tuned.
