Office/Excel editor for the N9
 
Hi all.
I desperately need a spreadsheet editor for the N9.
I got very used to using gnumeric on the n900, and am now missing the functionality.
I've searched the internet, looking for anu solution, but no love.
Does anyone know of one beimg available? Or is this really an App request?

I've been looking for one as well but there just isn't one yet. The best option now is to install Crochik's GApp (http://www.crochik.com/gapp/) and access/edit Google Docs on it. Stock browser can't edit GDocs. Sucks I know...:(

Ah yes, hadn't thought of that. Will have to do until there's a proper one.

MS Office editor will most likely have to be a commercial product produced by a big commercial developer so prospect for this is not very good at the moment due to Elop having pronounced the death of Harmattan with "The Last Meego Phone".

Yes, last MeeGo phone, not last phone with Swipe or Qt. Office suite is maybe not very interesting for low-end phones, but who knows what Elop is up to.

True it's the last Meego phone, but on the N900 we got things like gnumeric, Koffice, etc.
Hopefully someone can do a port of these, or a port of some of the Symbian ones that are floating around.

Yes, I hope there is interest. Open Office or Libre Office would meet most related needs. I found Open Office to be quite useful via Easy Debian on N900. Would be great if OO could be ported to N9. Although not sure how the user interface would work without HWKB. Also, with small option buttons might need a stylus for N9!

It should be able to edit MS Office files which is the main point of an Office editor. Creating an entire document on a phone screen is a bit of a pain don't you think?

According to their homepage, it is a viewer app. Didn't see any comment on editing files.
