BGR 網站表示從 Microsoft 方面得到可靠消息，Microsoft 將會推出 Office Suit 可用於 iOS 或 Android 平板，並期望在今年十一月推出。
BGR has learned from a reliable source that Microsoft is currently planning to release the company’s full Office suite for not only Apple’s iPad, but for Android tablets as well. The company is targeting November of this year for both launches.
Micosoft Office 始終是最常用的辦公室軟件，若果 Microsoft 真的推出 Android 版本，那就真是好消息。雖然在 Google Play Store 也可找到很多的 Office Apps，但這些 Apps 的功能都不太全面。
曾有朋友要求筆者介紹 Office Apps，但要做到兩個特定要求。第一是開啟受密碼保護的 doc 檔案，第二是可正確顯示表格內的圖像。結果，試了數個知名的 Office Apps，郤發現有些 Apps 做到 A 功能，但做不到 B；另一些 Apps就做到 B 但做不到 A。就是找不到兩樣皆可的 Office Apps！
筆者還是覺得，現有的 Office Apps 功能雖然已不弱，但只可以用來開啟一些排版較簡單較標準的檔案。若遇到一些 “奇怪少少” 的檔案，可能已有問題。所以，筆者很多時也會將文件輸出成 PDF，作為另一形式的備份。
希望 Microsoft 的 Offic App 在功能上會較全面，而檔案的兼容性亦會較好呢。

Additionally, our source has seen Microsoft Office running on an iPad first-hand and has said that it looks almost identical to the previous leak from The Daily a few months back, despite the fact that Microsoft flat out denied that the app was authentic. It is also plausible that Microsoft Office will be coming to the iPhone and iPod touch rather than only the iPad, as we’re told the loading screen in the app clearly said “Office for iOS” and not just iPad.
