Meh.. I deleted anything related to Google weeks ago. I would love to see a Open Office app.

LOL, exactly.

editing google docs on iPad huh

I think this is a really big deal... not sure why all the "meh". Right now, editing and sharing these kinds of files (which are the bulk of what people indeed edit) isn't great on the iPad. This will improve it tremendously. Sure, there are limits to what formatting, etc. you can do in a google doc, but so what?

I hope they do this via a dedicated "google doc" app...

I'm with you. This feels like a bigger deal than people are making of it. Whether it's through an app or some HTML5 wizardry in the browser, I'm looking forward to the flexibility this could mean for productivity with the iPad.

Curious … why did you do this?

Is it due to a future perceived Brainiac evolution of all Google endeavors? Hmm.

Not a fan of Google Docs. It's like it's still in beta mode... Formatting issues all over the place...

Been using it since day one, very heavily and have never experienced a single formatting issue. Works great on Safari, Chrome & Firefox and always has.

Yup, it's probably the Internet Explorer not supporting web standard.

How come there's no post about the Google Earth update? 😀

If Apple don't get Mobileme free and sorted swiftly, Google will grab the good stuff. Another piece of evidence to suggest that Apple is really not an agile tech producer.

Why should MobileMe be free?

I agree with you both. I am hoping for more along the lines of open office or ms office that is all. The more options for editing the better!
