Dear all, I keep on thinking: wouldn't it be wonderful if OpenOffice was available for tablets running Android?
Yesterday I had to tell a student who had bought a cheap tablet including external keyboard she had better resell it and buy instead a netbook, so she could install OpenOffice for Linux or Windows. Could Google not be approached by OpenOffice programmers with an offer of the sort: "We OpenOffice programmers could and would port OpenOffice to android, but we of course need to be paid proper programmers' salary. A first working and tested edition would take us around 15 months, working as a group of 5 programmers." ? Google/Android has no proper office suite. Microsoft will probably never want to port their MS Office to Android, because that would be the end of Windows 8, and Apple is not really interested in Office software anyway, at least not for Android. So OppenOffice would dominate the market for Android tablets, which would be good for Google too :). Yours Dave
