Muscular desktop applications like office suites can’t be run on downscale devices like the iPad, but that doesn’t mean Apple’s mighty tablet can’t be a valuable partner with those programs. A case in point is Quickoffice Connect Mobile Suite for iPad. Quickoffice is designed to work with files compatible with three mainstays of Microsoft’s popular Office suite: Word, Excel and Powerpoint. With it, you can store Office documents with a “cloud” service provider like Google Docs, Dropbox, Mobileme or Box.net.
