        A major distinction between the Windows Mobile 5 Pocket PC and Smartphone platforms is that Office documents are editable on the former, but only viewable on the latter, despite the growing popularity of smartphones with QWERTY keyboards.


        PCMag.com recently reviewed an application that rectifies this discrepancy.

        The "exceedingly slick" Documents to Go from DataViz, long a "mainstay" of Palm Treo and other smart devices, is now available as a free beta preview for Windows Mobile smartphones, according to PCMag. Documents to Go includes five modules:
        • word processor
        • spreadsheet
        • presentation editor
        • PDF viewer
        • ZIP extractor
        Despite an application interface that "leaves something to be desired," PCMag's reviewer gave Documents to Go for Windows Mobile four stars out of five. Read the full review here.
