Quickoffice Connect Drops into the Android Market
Quickoffice has just released their Quickoffice Connect Mobile Suite for Android, bringing the Microsoft Office document editor into the cloud. You still get all of the same functionality in editing Word documents, spreadsheets, and PowerPoint presentation, but with a few added touches that should make the mobile experience more refined.
Quickoffice connect features a full-function PDF viewer and the ability to edit attachments directly from your Android e-mail client. All files can be natively synced up with cloud-based storage services such as MobileMe, Google Docs, Box.net, and DropBox. No more dragging and dropping files between your phone and computer or e-mailing them to yourself. Convenience at its finest. If you want the files on your device you can do that too, choosing between phone storage or microSD options.
If you have an Android 2.0 handset you’ll also get multitouch support in the PowerPoint editor and flick to scroll. How much PowerPoint editing you really want to do on an Android phone is another story entirely. The new Quickoffice Connect is available in the Android Market now, but it won’t come cheap. $15 bucks little man, put that cash in Android’s hand.
