The latest dev build of abiword went up last night and this version includes a native program for osx - x11 is no longer needed. it has fairly good word document support (much better than textedit), it's fairly fast, supports all of your fonts, and anti-aliases text. it's still very rough, but i haven't had any problems with it so far.
