They were really nervous that nobody would come without the iPhone introduction. This is the first time that I can remember that such a big apple event actually had an advance agenda.

So is this in the iPhone App Store or how do I download these?

iWork '11 to follow closely? I hope so.

Me too, I would love it to get announced at WWDC, but we'll see.

I'm wondering if this was released just b4 they announce Dragon integration in iOS5. If so,might cause this to have way more utility than what we think.

Probably not as WWDC is a developer conference, while iWork is a consumer product.

Hmm..seems to tie in nicely with iCloud.

My exact thoughts, with WWDC 6 days away.

iWork will have instant iCloud sync across all platforms

This is great news. I suspect anyone who doesn't get it is someone who is too young to have had a real job yet. Being asked to "change 2 numbers and re-send it" is something that can totally happen to you while sitting in an airport where the wifi costs $12. I'd love the ability to do that from my phone without having to get a laptop or iPad onto wifi.

That being said, Apple has no good method of syncing documents the way Google does. They need to get on that if they want this to be actually useful. I'm hopeful that iCloud will do more than just stream music...

....clearly not on the UK App Store then? Can't seem to find it

 

[ldellx3]

Sweet! This will be really nice for modifying keynotes on the go. Does it work with iWork.com? (no pun intended)

Hope so too!

And macrumors, can you please create a Spoiler-Free Thread, just in case there is no live stream this year?

I was really unhappy last time, when there was no live-stream and no spoiler-free thread

 

[toddybody]

Well, I feel embarrassed...I thought they were already iPhone/iPod Touch compatible

 

[ppnkg]

nonsense! where are the desktop version updates?

It takes time. I'm in the U.S. and it's not showing up for me yet either.

Download it again using iTunes. That's how I got it

currently it's under iPad apps, but if you download it, it is universal and works on iPhone as well.

 

[TallGuy1970]

This is what I was waiting for!!!!!

I don't create the Pages documents on my phone, but there have been many times when it would have been nice to be able to edit them on my phone, and then print them out (which I do via Printopia).

Thanks Apple!

 

[Beaverfish]

this is what im hoping for

me 3 !

What's that?

And now Steve is talking about xxxxxxx. It's very xxxx and much xxxxx more than the last version. It's going to cost $x,xxx and will be available on xxxxx xxnd.

Is it only me or did Apple disable landscape mode in the iPhone version? Would too less writing space be left?? Landscape keyboard on the small iPhone would be even more important than on the iPad, in my opinion ...

 

[djrobsd]

EPIC fail.. seriously, we need this on a 3.5 inch touch screen? No thanks, it's painful enough watching netflix on my iphone, let alone trying to do any serious document editing.

 

[spacemanspifff]

No sign of them in the UK... yet...

....clearly not on the UK App Store then? Can't seem to find it

I'm guessing that it will take a while for them to show up in all the stores worldwide. I can't see these updates in the UK store yet either.

Still at least we know they are coming...

 

[nutmac]

This is a welcomed upgrade, especially for long overdue folder management. But I am curious whether this means Apple will be extending the life of current iWork iOS suite for another year or will require new $9.99 purchase for eventual iWork 2.0 upgrades.

 

[toddybody]

Probably not as WWDC is a developer conference, while iWork is a consumer product.

...and they've never introduced consumer products there?

 

[steadysignal]

Sweet! Now I can do all my papers and lab reports on a 3.5" touchscreen

hope it all works out for you...

Now needs syncing of documents between devices. Or would email do?
