I think I've watched every video out there and read any pre-review that's around right now. I don't see any mention of there being some type of word processor on the phone. With the great keyboard you would think google would make a google documents app for android. Anyone heard or seen such an app for it? I've only seen a very very basic text editor on the phone.

If not specifically an google docs app on the phone I am guessing it will be alternative to type in plain text editor and then sync it into the Google Docs.

Well I did some googling and found out there is a web only mobile google docs. You can reach it here http://docs.google.com/m. I was hoping for an app that could work local then maybe sync online. By the way the link only works if your logged into google.

Oh yeah the API for google docs was released its here http://code.google.com/apis/documents/overview.html coders start working please!! hehe

I'm glad you covered these issues for me, so i didn't have to. I want what you want...I'm willing to wait and know we will get something sooner than later, but maybe not right at launch...

Forgive me for the noob question, but can you create/edit documents using the mobile site?

Dang! Well, I hope they have an app for creating/editing the docs on the phone.

QuickOffice is also working on an exchange connector service. Let's hope it doesn't take too long.
