Microsoft Corp (MSFT.O) has unveiled a long-awaited suite of
touch-friendly Office apps that allow Windows phone users to work on Word,
PowerPoint and Excel documents on their phones with touch commands and to
transfer them easily between devices.
Test versions of what Microsoft is calling its Office
Universal apps are available to download immediately and full versions will be
available by the end of the month, Microsoft said.
Many Office users have waited months for Microsoft to
introduce the apps, which adapt their look and commands to the device being
used, whether Windows Phone or tablet.
