It's no Microsoft Office such as you'd get on the new Surface Pro, but it does allow you a bit more flexibility with creating and reading documents than you'll find on other tablets. I paid $9.99 for the version I have on my iPad 1.
And Calendar, which has always been free, is a great way to keep track of important dates. For example, I'm using it now to count down the days until I retire. (Have I mentioned that as of today, October 23, 2013, there are only 73 days remaining before it's Take This Job and Shove It time?)
Here's a link describing all the iPad Air's built-in apps: http://www.apple.com/ipad-air/built-in-apps/. |
Yes, it looks like Apple is more concerned with Microsoft than Android. They are offering the competing office suite to MS office for real work, not just movie viewing and picture viewing, but of course they have those too.
