MOTORIZR Z8 gets Quickoffice viewer, what about edit?

We have one good and one bad news for existing and future (as it’s still not available in many parts of the world) MOTORIZR Z8 users. The good one is that popular mobile office suite Quickoffice v4 is now available for Motorola (NYSE: MOT)’s “media monster“; the bad one is that at this stage it only allows viewing of the documents — you can’t edit them directly from your handset. However, that could be just good enough for you in case you bought/want this phone for its media qualities. For the introductory price of $19.95, Quickoffice promises “unique and powerful viewing features for Word, PowerPoint and Excel, including the ability to view Word documents, with original formatting of fonts, layouts, colors, lists, bullets, headers and footers intact and optimized for the Motorola phone.”

Well, we could at least see email attachments this way, which is not that bad. I would love to see Motorola bundling Quickoffice with Z8 — otherwise it’s hard to imagine buying an office viewer.
