Default Docs to Go OR Quickoffice?

Has anyone tried both of these apps on your Iconia? Impressions, pros-cons of each one?

Which would you recommend?

Thanks,

The comparison link takes you to a great comparison review...a lot work done here! What I
I saw here was a reference to Polaris Office which seems to be only available on the Transformer. It sure looks like it would be nice to have on my Acer. Google search will take to the company's web site, but there is no download/purchase link. There are some YouTube videos showing in action.

I have found a version of Polaris that works (I have tested it). Some guy took it from the rom and posted it on the internet and I'm not sure if I'm allowed to post the link since it's not for our devices. I'll post the link if a mod gives us a green light.

I can just say that it works nicely and that it performs and looks way better than my paid version of Quickoffice. I'm actually sorry that I've bought it now.

Edit: Mod Edit: XDA rules prevent to use OEM apps outside any custom/stock Rom so link removed.If you want any OEM app just download any custom Rom that does include it.Here is the file[/URL] (instructions as to where to copy the libs are included). App works fine on my tablet but you do need root to copy the needed libs.

I thought Polaris was crap and avoided it for a while - now it's my go-to Office suite on Iconia.

I got it from another link, but just in case users come across this thread in search, if Polaris Office force-closes for you whenever you actually try and open something, it's usually because the permissions of the lib files you copied into /system/lib need to be updated.

You can do this using a free root browser like File expert (if I recall). Enable root exploring in its options, then pop into /system/lib and confirm the polaris office libs match the permissions of the surrounding files.
