Document editing

Another requirement is editing documents (word doc etc)
I wanted features like
  • Essential
    • Open and edit DOC / DOCX
    • Bold / Italic / Underline
    • Fonts
    • Tables
    • Bullets
  • Nice
    • Insert table / insert row
    • Pictures
    • Styles
    • Multiple docs
    • Table of contents
    • Spell check

Eventually I found OfficeSuite which does most of this including tables and bullets - I couldn't find any other apps that handled tables and bullets as well.
I also downloaded an alternative keyboard (the gingerbread keyboard) and I find this better than the default 2.2 keyboard.
A couple of niggles

  • sometimes it's not easy to position the cursor - cursor keys would help - this device doesn't have them,  and there aren't any on screen
  • in OfficeSuite some functions are difficult to get to (eg deep in menues) - might be easier if the menu button on this device was better placed.
