“First impressions are very good, with all, repeat all my test files accepted and loaded with no errors whatsoever. After frustration with other suites on both S60 and UIQ, this catch-all compatibility with the likes of Open Office and the vaguaries of Microsoft’s ever-changing .DOC ‘standard’ is a welcome surprise.Second impressions are also very good. Word documents load with more or less full formatting, including all text effects, inline pictures and formatting, although tables are shown without cell formatting. By default, documents are shown in ‘View’ mode, highlights of which are searching, bookmarks and a variety of zoom levels, all of which work very well. There’s a ‘Word count’ function, too, essential to wizzened hacks like me.” Read this review here:
