You have the ability to view them, but not work on them in an application. I want to be able to write and edit the document. Jobs was just showing how you can view them as attachments.

Anyone know?
Thanks

There are NO words of Word / Excel / Powerpoint. There is a little misunderstanding.


What Jobs said is, there will be support to VIEW such files, not edit them.

Yeh im hoping for word to be developed for iphone by microsoft. That would be brilliant. And photshop would be amazing. But i wont be satisfied until broken sword is made for iphone. That will be the greatest development of all time.

This is the time for Google to really step it up and allow there google docs to be editable on the iPhone. The fact that it is still only viewable is totally outrageous. Cmon google. Now is your chance!!
