"High on that list is the ability to track changes in a Word document, something that lots of people need.
Office2 HD fills that need and more. It's almost like having the complete Office suite on your iPad, with a few exceptions."
"Apart from being handy for watching videos and catching up on entertainment, using a tablet to do some work gives you another reason to leave your laptop at home and rely purely on your iPad or Android tablet when out and about. This is where office apps come in."
"While Microsoft seemingly crawls toward the release of their first-party Office iPad app, it is being beaten to the punch. There are umpteen text editors for iOS, some full office suite alternatives, and of course, Apple's own iWork set to compete with. But now, SlideShark has chosen to concentrate solely on presentations. So how does it fare? Read on to find out!"
"Plenty of apps give you stripped-down versions of Office on the iPad. But OnLive Desktop gives you the complete Windows Office suite. In Word, you can do fancy stuff like tracking changes and high-end typography. In PowerPoint, you can make slide shows that the iPad projects with all of the cross fades, zooms and animations intact.

"Thanks to a moment in time--February, 2012--chief technology officers from several districts presented at two concurrent events, TCEA 2012 System Administrator Academy and Texas Chief Technology Officers (CTO) 2012 Winter Meeting. With the help of a colleague, the audio recordings from those presentations are available as a podcast series!"
"Last week, there was a lot of press around a possible 'Microsoft Office' for the iPad. Microsoft said they had no announcement but they didn't deny anything either. People are getting excited about taking their Office documents with them on the iPad. This is interesting for us because we have been… for years!"
"With the adoption of iPads, tablets and smartphones into our work flow instead of just sitting at a laptop computer here are five categories of apps positioned well for becoming a fundamental part of our day to day work environment in this mobile era."
"I'm very invested in the iPad as a laptop replacement, and I endeavour to make it my main machine when I'm away from my desk (at which I currently use an iMac). I travel regularly, often to speak at events, and I try to embrace simplicity and to work away from my office as much as I can.
To that end, I've compiled a list of my essential iPad applications for productivity, that I use regularly when:"
"Have you ever been on the road and wish you could scan a document?
Or in a meeting and needed to share a hard copy document?
However, your scanner was back in your office…
Today, I want to show you an easy solution."
"Using personal iPhones and iPads in the office leads many people to work from them while on vacation.
Our iPhones and iPads, which enable us to work and be on call virtually anywhere at any time, will lead to more than half of us working while on vacation. That's the result of a new study that looked at how technology impacts the work/life balance. iOS devices are common players in the bring your own device (BYOD) era. As BYOD programs lead many of us to use our personal iOS devices and other mobile technology for work-related tasks, they also encourage an "always on" attitude from employers and employees alike."
"Yesterday there was a lot of excitement about a Twitter app release specifically for the iPad. TweetBot is a Twitter app that is just enough different that folks that use Twitter a lot will likely enjoy. Enough to pay a couple dollars when there is a free option? Seems so around the office, but it really depends on the user's needs."
"The iPad is becoming an office worker's best friend. In terms of work time saved, your iPad will likely pay for itself in a matter of months if not weeks. But like any computer, you can't realize the iPad's full potential without tweaking the machine's default settings to suit your style."
