Sure if someone ports OpenOffice.org or something similar for Maemo which may be challenging, but not necessarily impossible provided that someone does it. Currently however, as far as my understanding, the answer is no. The OpenOffice.org for example is a quite demanding application on the desktop and may be quite hard to make it fit into a resource limited device (very limited memory if compared to desktop (64 MB RAM, and with Linux, X, AF Desktop etc. loaded, not very much free RAM), very limited flash, if compared to desktop Linux box hard drive etc). If there would be a tiny GTK+ based OpenOffice.org viewer somewhere out there in the open source community (I don't know if there is), that would be the best starting point and a lot more realistic to port so that it will propably work on the 770 device. Optimizing the memory footprint down would be crucial to success.
