Excel/Word Mobile for Moto Q Smartphone?

Reader J.R. asks: Is there an excel, word package that works for the Motorola Q smartphone that recently came out thru Verizon?

J.R. Unlike Windows Mobile Pocket PC and Pocket Phone Edition devices, the Windows Mobile Smartphone devices (such as the Motorola Q) do not have Mobile Office components such as Excel or Word. There are, however, third party packages that may meet some of your needs (reading but not writing). You can read my O’Reilly Network blog item…

…for more information. If you want to edit Word and Excel files, you should look at Pocket PC Phone Edition products such as the T-Mobile MDA or Verizon Wireless Treo 700w.
