Microsoft's Office for iPad caught in the wild, could be heading to the App Store very soon Feb 21st 2012, 13:35 Back in November, The Daily claimed that Microsoft was working on a version of its hugely popular "Office" application for the iPad.  It has now followed up its original story with a picture of Office running on the iPad and the notion that it is now complete and very close to being submitted to Apple for approval. The Daily even managed to grab some hands-on time with a working prototype of the Office application. A brief hands-on with a working prototype of the software revealed a number of new things. The app's user interface is similar to the current OneNote app, but it has hints of Metro, the new design language that can be seen in Windows Phone and in the as-yet-released Windows 8 desktop operating system. Word, Excel and PowerPoint files can be created and edited locally and online. But it's unclear if Microsoft will support other Office apps at launch or at all. We still don't know if this will make it to Apple for approval or if it will even gain approval; although there is no reason why it won't. The question still remains, would Microsoft really launch Office for iPad before giving Windows 8 Metro slates a chance to compete using Office exclusivity as a draw? It is really beginning to look very much like it would! Source: The Daily More of: News More on: Apple, apps, excel, ipad apps, Microsoft, office, powerpoint, rumor, word
