Hi all, of course (nearby) nobody will use an Android Handy to write a Novel or similar; nevertheless, yesterday in the omnibus, I watched a young woman and was fascinated concerning the speed she wrote on a handy only using her thumbs. I'm afraid she was faster than me here typing with 10 fingers. But I think an android tablet or even a smartphone can be quite a nice ODF document viewer, may be with smaller edits in the documents or so, you can use LibO for creation of simple documents from Templates (timesheet, directly signed by the customer on the screen in a DRAW OLE object ...). And LibO seems not to be the spear head there, please see http://softmaker.com/english/ofacomp_en.htm! On my Android tablet I use a different ODF viewer (forgot the name, result is not satisfying), because Versions from daily/master/Android-... crashed during installation). So we need to interest more new additional Hackers helping to create a LibO Android suite based on the current Master, including Documentation, Project info, ... .

Re: [Libreoffice-qa] [libreoffice-marketing] Latest Hardware and OS
Hi :) No. At least i think the answer to that is no I think how many might is a moving target. At the moment those devices are probably not seen as good things to use to edit documents. Pi is more about learning programming and building bits of hardware. Android is more about just catching little snippets of information and looking up odd things before arriving at home or at the office. If you planned to work on documents on-the-move then you would probably use something larger than a netbook. LO could change all that. With a docking station http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Docking_station hand-held, mobile and just tiny devices could really start to take-over from desktops for certain usages. Also while on-the-move LO provides more options and more easily for minimising the UI so that screen's real estate could show more of a document while still having a useful menu or customised tool-bar. It'd be interesting to see if Android started becoming even more popular because it becomes an office in your pocket due to LO. Of course desktops still have a greater capacity to be more powerful, greater local storage and easier to tinker with, fix and upgrade but people are all excited about moving to mobile devices. LO has an opportunity to be ahead of the game a bit. especially with all the good work that has gone into stream-lining the program over the last couple of years.
