Microsoft Considering Office for Apple's iPad Office For iPad Is "Something We're Looking At", Microsoft Says

Knowing that Microsoft will be releasing Office for Mac 2011 later this
year with a bunch of goodies that the Apple user will enjoy, it doesn't
come in as a surprise to learn that the Seattle-based company might also
be considering Office for the much hyped and rumored Apple tablet, the iPad.
In a MacWorld interview with Mike Tedesco, Microsoft's Senior Product
Manager for the Macintosh business unit, our good friends from T3 found
out that a version of Microsoft Office for the iPad is something that
the company is really looking at . Tedesco thinks the iPad is still
fresh, which is why he's keeping tight-lipped giving any other details
about when exactly you're going to see Word or Powerpoint on Apple's
latest creation. On top of that, Tedesco also mentioned that they had
tablet technology forever that works on both Windows 7 and Vista based
tablets — like Apple users would care!
Apple already has its own productivity apps — Keynote, Pages and
Numbers for $9.99 each, which is why the launch of Office for iPad
should be taken with a grain of salt. But would you be among those to
get it if they actually build it?
