iPod touch iWork & Office Support.

[B. Hunter]

We know that iWork and Office support will be part of 2.0.
Question is how.
Will it only be thru files sent by email, or can we import files separately from a computer and store them on a Touch?

Since he didn't show or talk about anything else, I'd assume that it's still through the Mail app as attachments.

probably only from e-mail
but it would nice to import a powerpoint or keynote
file into your touch

Since he didn't show or talk about anything else, I'd assume that it's still through the Mail app as attachments.

I'd predict that they will probably make it work through a MobileMe iDisk as well.

 

[henchosbandito]

when they say full support, do they mean that we will be able to edit the documents as well?

 

[speakerwizard]

I think full support means they now have powerpoint as well as exel and word, and of course iwork.

This seems doubtful. Read-only I suspect. The ability to run Keynote presentations off an iPhone or touch would be a great addition.

Ok. just watched the WWDC Keynote again.
Steve J. talked about importing iWork and Office documents as attachments. Sounds to me he was talking about email?
I am really hoping we can import files from our computer.

On the App Store web page it lists categories for new aplications. One of which is productivity. I hope they mean it.
It also says "Shop for applications from the new App Store and make your iPhone or iPod touch whatever you want it to be."
Well, I know what I want my Touch to be. The question is will Apple make it possible.
