APPENDIX: DRIOD App Guide
TIP: Check out Chapter 21: "Working with Notes and Documents" for descriptions of how to use
Docs to Go and QuickOffice.
ThinkFree Mobile is another popular choice, although in our testing it suffered from
more formatting errors when trying to display documents. Table A–1 shows these and
other document tools.

Price Notes
Free The free trial allows you to view documents,
trial/$14.99 and the paid version allows you to edit them.
It supports Word and Excel formats; the
paid version also supports PowerPoint.
US$9.99 This is a complete software solution offering
good capabilities for creating and editing
Microsoft Office documents on your DROID.
For some PowerPoint editing it has better
capabilities than Docs to Go.
Free The free trial is for 30 days. The app supports
trial/$1.99 Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and PDF files.
This app had a high failure rate in our testing
when trying to open files.
Free/$9.99 The free version is just a viewer. The paid version
can be purchased either item by item (e.g., word
processing, spreadsheets, and slideshow) or all
at once. It will download and open Google
Docs, and it has a built-in file browser.
Overall, this app has a nice feature set; in my
testing, however, it did not display
documents well and often made them
difficult to read with black backgrounds.
Free Allows you to view PDF attachments, but
does not let you create or edit them. This is
stable, free, and offered directly from Adobe.
It also supports pinch-to-zoom and viewing
from the Web.
