Given that Google's increased their number of apps by 75,000 over three months, I wouldn't be surprised if we see another headline in a month, maybe two, announcing that Google Play has passed Apple in the number of apps.

OSP is definitely the highlight here. It's a good office app for beyond dirt cheap.

I haven't used it, Adama; how does it compare to either DTG or QuickofficePro? apologies if a review was done and I've forgotten it...

One right here, as a matter of fact:

OfficeSuite Pro Review: Great Office Compatibility

It doesn't have a couple of the advanced features like spell checking, but it does have a nice, easy to use interface and great file compatibility. Personally, I prefer it over either QO Pro or DTG.

I picked up DTG, QuickOffice Pro and OSP from Amazon last year for free or cheap, and the E4GT comes with Polaris Office. Polaris is the worst of the bunch, but it's the only one I've kept on my phone after my last factory wipe. I just don't use mobile office suites much on the small screen. Even back in the Palm TX days, I'd pick up DTG for $7 or so on sale, but never used it enough to justify the expense.
