As some of you may already know, Microsoft is in the early stages of bringing the Office Applications to the web, that means you may no longer have to buy a copy of Microsoft Word, but there is more....

MS Excel

Microsoft is planning to make Office Web Applications mobile browser friendly, this means you can be on your mobile phone and edit Word documents on the go via the Internet. If Microsoft makes Office Web Apps work as how it should be, I am definitely ditching Google Docs first thing, I love Google but Docs while a good lightweight document editor, it still suck nuts in many ways.

Yes, mobile browsers will be supported for Office Web applications. We are still in early phases of development and will share additional details around specific browsers and functionality at a later date.
