And here is why, After watching the iPad guided tour videos I realized something. iWork is so easy to use that you can even use it on a mobile device like the iPad and still get more accomplished compared to it counterpart. I been using Microsoft Office since…. I started using a computer. I cannot tell you how frustrating it is to get anything accomplish in the latest version of Office. To add to insult MS is going to be releasing Office 2010 later this year, so God only knows what kind of asinine “New Features” they will introduce with this version. Don’t get me wrong, I realized that when it comes to complex word document, presentations and spreadsheets Office offer all the tools to be able to built them. The problem with Office is that if you have a certain level of complication in a document, then you can rest assure that you can multiply the complicity of creating the document x2. What I mean here is that the program by nature become more complicate to use the more you drill down into it. iWork is exactly the opposite. It does not matter how complex the task at hand, iWork allows you to maintain a steady work flow with out having to pause to figure out in what menu bar they decided to burry the feature you are looking for.
For Apple to build iwork for iPad and still deliver the same level of detail and features is a slap in to the of MS office team. The fact that i can create a document on my Mac and be able to edit it or completely redo it while on the go is just the ultimate nirvana of document editing. I invite you to do the same on Office and any of the office mobile solutions out there. once again Apple has shown Microsoft how things should be done. The sad thing is that as we all know Microsoft will do nothing but try to mimic what Apple has accomplish but will end up making office mobile nothing short of a nightmare to use.
