At this year’s MacWorld Expo in San Francisco the folks from
Microsoft
have announced that Office 2011 for Mac will be released sometime
later this year. Seen as the first
Apple
-based suites to bring a fully Mac-tailored version of Outlook (using
Apple
’s Cocoa API) and web-based co-authoring, the new Office for Mac 2011
will include myriad tweaks to how users share and interact with
documents.
Office for Mac 2011
“You’ve told us that working together across platforms is a priority
to you and that’s why we are making Office for Mac 2011 the best, most
compatible productivity
suite on the Mac,” says Eric Wilfrid, MacBU General Manager at
Microsoft.
More detailed features for the Microsoft Office for Mac 2011 include:
list of 5 items
• Entourage goes, here comes Outlook — hated Entourage or the web-
based version of Outlook, now you’re finally getting Outlook for Mac
• .PTS support — allows users to back up and open their emails outside
their mail client and brings permission settings for the first time
• Co-authoring — allows you and your co-workers to edit Word,
PowerPoint or Excel files at the same time, regardless of time,
geography or platform
• Office Web Apps — lighter versions of the desktop counterparts,
you’ll be able to get your work done as long as you have a machine
connected to the Internet
• The “Ribbon” UI — new user interface with an unique Mac-like feel, a
perfect mix between the Office 2008 Elements Gallery, the classic Mac
menu and Standard
Toolbar

I've heard the new MS Office has been rewritten for Cocoa and should
be accessible but information from MS can be true and false at the
same time.

hi all
I have just read on the mac world website that microsoft has
announced
the launch of office for mac 2011. Could this be the answer to our
prayers by finally being accessible to voiceover users? Does anyone
have the inside line on this?
Keep your fingers crossed.
