Now you can do word processing on the Apple iPhone too. gOffice is a free application that lets you turn the mobile device into a document creator.
The need to do this stems from the fact that Apple has chosen not to include a text editor in the iPhone even though it enables you to view and edit Microsoft Word and PDF documents sent as attachments. This move hasn't been helped by Apple's decision to lock out third-party apps, unless they've been written to run as mini web-apps in the iPhone's Safari web browser.
iPhone limitations
The gOffice suite enables you to export Word documents and PDFs from the iPhone. But you can't save any documents you create in gOffice onto the iPhone itself. Instead you have to either email it to yourself, or get it posted by snail mail for a $2 (£1) fee.
The gOffice suite itself is free, but you'll also need to pay a $0.99 per month subscription to access the service. You can check out the online demo at h ttp://www.goffice.com .
