Office Mobile 2007 comes to a range of Windows Mobile devices
Jason has revealed that Office Mobile 2007 will be available from Q3 this year - I mentioned my disappointment that even though the Windows Mobile 6 and EVO launches were so close that the docx format was not supported in WM 6 this update redresses the balance - the terminology suggests that this is an application upgrade rather than an AKU / ROM update so there should be no need to backup / wipe and start again, the update will support .pptx .docx .xlsx and FAX documents on both WM6 and WM5.0 devices
I’m increasingly coming to view my WM6 device as a portal to a sophisticated back end and this will help reinforce WM6 as a handportable part of the EVO environment, I just wish that Microsoft had included office 2007 support in the initial WM6 release,it should have been an intrinsic part of the WM6 and WM6 should have been launched as a portable office portal device.
