A review comparing the Apple apps (native and cloud), MSFT Office (native and cloud), and Google Docs compare would be interesting. Specifically usability (touch as well as external keyboard attached), on and offline modes.

Playing up the ribbon in the presentation? Curious as ribbon really has triggered a love it or hate it reaction.

Considering Apple's Cloud apps are still in beta, that would be unfair. I can't edit my KeyNote presentation in the cloud at the moment, so yeah.

I don't think it would be unfair. If we're competing in the same space and you have a solid, mature app and all I have is a buggy beta, that means you're winning.

Not just Google Docs, but Google's QuickOffice, which is the more feature rich office app for mobile from Google.

What do you hate about it? I find it to be just a bigger toolbar.

The thing I care about the most is UI responsiveness, so Apple's iOS (upto 6, hate 7) UI has always impressed me with its fluidity. Google is web based which I hate the most. I cant understand how any sane person could use a shitty bloated web app over a high performance native application.

I personally don't care about it one way or the other. Just, over the years, I recall people really disliking it...how cluttered it is, etc.

[ksk]

Yes, I have seen people complain about it as well. I never understood the hate.

Absolutely true, I'd love to see that comparison.
