Microsoft Office Mobile 6.1 upgrade available now for download from Microsoft September 27, 2007 [General] | By Edward J. R. Never before Microsoft was delivering upgrades or updates directly to end users - always it was either through wireless carriers or manufacturers. This time Microsoft however has changed this practice! Still some new Windows Mobile 6 phones have old Office Mobile that doesn't support Office Mobile 2007 documents so availability of this download proves that Microsoft really cares about customers (here: "Save As" dialog box that shows .docx file support): Microsoft Office 2007 introduced new Open XML-based file formats for Office applications. These new file formats reduce file size, improve security and reliability, and enhance integration with external sources. To allow Windows Mobile users to work with Office documents created in the Open XML formats, Microsoft has developed an upgrade for Word Mobile, Excel Mobile, and PowerPoint Mobile applications. This upgrade to the Office Mobile applications allows viewing and editing of Word documents and Excel workbooks and viewing of PowerPoint slideshows created by using Microsoft Office 2007. Other improvements include: Enhanced viewing experience for charts in Excel Mobile. Ability to view SmartArt in PowerPoint Mobile. Ability to view and extract files from compressed (.zip) folders.4 Microsoft Office Mobile 6.1 Full Version to support Microsoft 2007 file formats If your Windows Mobile device does not have a version of Microsoft Office Mobile prior to 6.1, you can purchase the full version of Microsoft Office Mobile. The Office Mobile application suite includes Microsoft Office Word Mobile, Excel Mobile, and Microsoft Office PowerPointŪ Mobile for Windows Mobile 6 powered devices, helping users manage and review documents. Microsoft Office Mobile includes support for rich reviewing and minor editing capabilities as well as support for rights-managed documents. The primary user scenario enabled by Office Mobile is viewing e-mail attachments, performing minor edits, sharing document versions, and opening documents from an SD card or a SharePoint server. Office Mobile provides a high-fidelity document viewing experience, with capability to edit as well as fast performance in loading the first page of the document. Note: This free upgrade works only for Windows Mobile powered devices that have an earlier version of Office Mobile. If your Windows Mobile powered device does not have Office Mobile applications, this upgrade will not work for you. You can purchase the full version of Office Mobile 6.1 online.
