office suites on N800?
Any sign of an office type suite coming to the N800? I'm mainly looking to create/edit word docs. I use GoogleDocs but there's not many wifi places around me to use it when I'm out and about. I have 2 x 4gb cards so room to install lol.

Re: office suites on N800?
I can't stand using Google docs on my tablet because you only get to see something like 2 lines of text by the time the headers and other stuff are displayed. Is there a better way to "see it"? I have a great wifi connection and bluetooth keyboard, but the small viewing area of the google docs and spreadsheets kind of detracts from its usefulness for me. Thanks.

I went back to OS 2007 so I could use Abiword (among other applications not ported to OS 2008 yet) on my N800.

deserttaxguy - even with the keyboard open I'm seeing around 10 lines of text. Is your zoom at 100% ?
OSEmuTech - let's hope it gets ported over soon then lol Thanks |
Re: office suites on N800?
Abiword is also available on OS2008 now, though it's not perfect.

Where to download Abiword for N800(OS2008),I can't find it.

Re: office suites on N800?
Abiwork for OS2008 is still in private beta testing and hasn't released a public version yet.
Your best best is to install Abiword for OS2007. You may have to install the OS2007 libraries to get it work in OS2008 though. See http://www.gossamer-threads.com/list...212;list=maemo for a script to do this. |

Re: office suites on N800?
Have you tried KDE from the hack that Penguinbait did?
It has a full office suite. There is an easy .deb app somewhere on these forums. The KDE has over 100 programs within it. Gnumeric and Abiword cause a lot of conflicts with other libraries, apps and repositories. I had to unistall both after a few days. KDE is seemless. Dan |

Here is the thread that talks about KDE:

Re: office suites on N800?
I'd like somebody to comment on the features of the koffice suite, before I try again to load penguinbait's kde tarball (last time I tried, I screwed up my tablet).
I tried the desktop version of kpresenter (on my kubuntu box), and couldn't open any old presentation I had. Is someone using these apps intensively? Please report your impressions... |
