MS to add OneNote to Mac Office?

[MacRumors]

ThinkSecret claims Microsoft's "One Note" program is coming to Mac Office.

OneNote is a forthcoming outliner and organizer that allows you to capture and store your notes and information in a central location. Notes can be typed in at any place in a document, recorded via audio, handwritten with pen input, or drag-and-dropped from a Web site.

...and in return

So is this going to b Microsofts answer for Keynote? Do u think they had this planned or pushed it out as soon as they could just to make their suite look a little better to Corporate buyers et all...???

No, OneNote is an outliner app, presumably similar to OmniOutliner. Inasmuch as this software's not supposed to be released until mid-2003 for Windows, this announcement actually amounts to FUD.

Apple doesn't announce things until the minute they're ready; Microsoft preannounces products that are probably only in the pre-planning stages to freeze competitors.

Maybe M$ has all the programs in OSX...

Maybe M$ has a version of all their programs in OSX but don't care to release them until they need to do so? They seem more reactionary to Apple innovations than pre-emptive...

More importantly the need to add support for Jaguar's address book and calander functions, that is the only think I can think of that I want to see in Microsoft Office, every thing else I think that would add would just be more bloat.
