I believe the DataVis program only does read-only. No writing (though whether they make it so you can buy write access or something later on might be possible).
As for OpenOffice, yes it can read and write .xls files.

GoogleDocs is probably your best bet.

I'm interested in any trade-offs (cost/installation issues/dual boot requirements) that I'll be faced with. Nobody will truly know that until after they've actually done it.

The trade off is that the viewers are trial... There is a KOffice port in the works AFAIK.

What happens if one tries to install the OS2008 package for gnumeric?
(I'd try myself but I'm still waiting for my device... )

Does the DataVis program included allow using (and saving) .xls files? Can it be upgraded to do so? What about KOffice and/or Open Office?
Thanks

Wow
My N900 is about 2,00 miles away, and it looks like I'll still be the first one to try to open/edit/save an .xls file?
