As a grad student and someone always on the go, I am constantly looking for ways to utilize my time. The best way I have found is this application. It is an office suite for the iPhone. It is able to create and edit .doc and .docx files. It also can create and edit .xls and .xlsx files. The upgraded version can create and edit PowerPoint files.

I am able to dowload lecture, listen to them on the iPod program built into the iPhone and take notes. Although the screen is not very large, I have become proficient at typing on it. I even take notes in class. I always wonder if the professor thinks I’m texting!

The best feature is the ability to sync the docs from the iPhone with my MacBook. Over a wireless connection, creations or modifications made from either the computer or iPhone will sync between the two.

For $9.99, it is a must have if writing and editing is your profession or passionate hobby and you are on the go!
