This made me very happy to read. 
I've used KOffice 2.0 on the desktop, and while it's not at feature parity with even OOo yet, as long as they're working on MS Office support, I don't doubt it will be more than sufficient for at least mobile use by 2.1RC. Kudos to Nokia for being Awesome once again!

Great. Good news. Thanks.
But QT seems really strange compared to GTK.

Oh, hm.
Better than a text editor I guess... :-|
No more comments until I've tried it out.

Situation is a bit worse with MS-Office compatibility but in my experience "good enough" for simple files. Also one of the official goals of this Nokia involvement is: "to help KOffice mature its loading and rendering of MSOffice documents."

Nokia sponsored creation of Office document viewer based on KOffice:
http://labs.trolltech.com/blogs/2009...ed-on-koffice/
KWord and KPresenter are mentioned but I hope other modules are also supported (or will be in future).
Note that while title mentions "viewer" text is about complete KOffice so not only viewing but also edition and creation of documents should be possible.
Program will be officially presented at Maemo Summit.
