Although the upcoming iPhone 2.0 software update promises to allow *viewing* of all major Office doc formats, there will still be no built-in ability to edit those documents. There is a solution coming for editing Excel spreadsheets though, from a leading Mac Excel-compatible spreadsheet program publisher.
Mariner Calc for iPhone – from Mariner Software – will offer full Excel compatibility and editing capabilities on the fly.
Mariner Calc for iPhone is about 80% of the way to completion at this time and is expected to ship about the time the virtual doors open on the App Store. If you like to work on huge spreadsheets, you’ll love this app since it sports a maximum of 1,000,000 rows and 32,000 columns.
There is no word on pricing for Mariner Calc for iPhone yet, but this should prove a very popular app for lots of people out there who will need to be able to work with, not just view, Excel data on their iPhones.
