Can the iPhone edit MS Office files?
 
I'm contemplating getting an iPod Touch*. I'd like to be able to both read and manipulate Excel and Word files. Is this possible? I googled that question and got answers that were a year old.


*I know I said iPhone in the title. But I don't want to get raped with an un-lubed sandpaper dildo on monthly charges.

Note the word "access" and not "edit."

But wouldn't you be able to edit them now that there is copy/paste functionality? I haven't tried it myself so I have no idea.

I think the iphone only has a viewer for MS Docs, but you can edit text notes. I haven't seen any spreadsheet functionality for the iphone yet.
