Since I sold my Xoom a long time ago I moved to the ASUS TF101. You can find an updated version of the thread here:

Right on, thanks! Time to catch up...

Uh huh okay. And I'm hoping Wordstar makes a comeback

yeah, I'd rather Wordstar than WordPerfect F7/yes/no

I tried the trial of OfficeSuite today(only for viewing PowerPoint slide shows) and it handles them quite nicely, special character and all (sigma, omega, etc).

Anyone know of any office software that can cope with saving in the .docx format currentlyhave quickoffice hd and there's still no support for it?

I can't remember which one off the top of my head, and my Xoom is in my bag, but I'd check the other, more recent thread. The OP gave me the new thread link in the top post on this page.

I think that Office Suite Pro allows saving in .docx format. I'ts the best program, IMHO.

How do you edit in polaris office?

I tried most of the android office apps, Smart Office is not the easier to use (it takes some time to get use to it), but it is the smoothest : when you scroll or zoom a document, it is very smooth, and that is important for me.

I am beta tester for softmaker office. Really good program, you'll be impressed when eventually it get released. Hopefully very soon. It will also support footnotes edit and create.

Check out the updated comparison in the Transformer forum

All,

Since I don't want to duplicate threads I'll just redirect traffic from this thread to the one that I keep updated in the ASUS Transformer (TF101) forum. Here's the link:

It contains 7 (SEVEN) office suites now and got a complete overhaul!

Hey Ansem,

You should definitely try the SoftMaker apps. I bought them and after a first quick test run they look much better than anything else out there:

You won't get them for free though.

I have updated the first post General overview and added a PowerPoint comparison. The other two comparisons will hopefully follow soon. Thanks everyone for being patient with me!
