Edit MS Office documents - my solution
 
This solution will be ok just for thouse, who are using unlimited data plans. Mabey somebody allready written about it, but i didnt found

MS Office WEB aplications


Ther is working just Excel editing now, but under development is Powerpoint, Word, OneNote.

To enable this online editing, you must to install Office 2010 Beta on your PC and after that, save document right to MS Skydrive, after that you be able to create/edit/share MS documents online.

Hope, that would be helpfull for someone.

Well, if you are going to use Web Apps, then you could use Google Docs. It works just fine with the built-in browser.

Actually with the new google docs changes you can upload anything. There is even a pixelpipe way of doing it from the N900. Then you can share the document as an attachment.

You can upload XLS or XLSX and either choose to convert them to Google Docs format (editable on the browser) or too keep it in the original format for sharing or downloading latter. And you can mail them just fine.

Crazy. If someone send me a mail with a doc file to edit: I have to download the mail, upload the file, edit it. Download again and send it to my mate? Wow!

No - you upload it to google docs - edit it online using google docs - email it to your mate - using google docs.

That might be because MS have a proprietary format!
