Microsoft Makes Office Mobile Editing Free As in Freemium

Posted by timothy on from the free-is-relative dept.

An anonymous reader writes Microsoft today announced a significant change to its Office strategy for mobile devices: creating and editing is now free. The company also released standalone Word, Excel, and PowerPoint apps for the iPhone, as well a new preview of these apps for Android tablets. Starting today, whether you're using an Office app on Android or iOS, you can create and edit content without an Office 365 subscription. The company is pitching this move as "More of Office for everyone."

    I'm debating what I should have for dinner. The girlfriend has offered to make either Curry or Breakfast for Dinner... Which do you think I should go for?
