Hi :)
It might be good for reviewing documents on the train or small ad-hoc
meetings
in restaurants and maybe doing a little light editing. I think
reviewing in
awkward places is where it would really score.
Sadly LibreOffice is not yet ready for mobile devices. The closest
is the
Portable Apps thing where you can install to usb-stick and then use
on other
people's desktops.
Windows only, of course :-(
Also Google-docs complements LibreOffice and prefers the
same native format too.

Still, it would be nice to get a version of LO that works on Google's
Android, or iPad's OS.
There are many "experts" out there stating that the tablet will be
"death" of the PC market. Until you can use it to print, scan, and all
those other applications that you need the computing power and the
ability to attached printers/scanners/etc., there will be a PC. Also,
until these tablets can have RAM in the 4GB range and storage in the
1-3TB range, there will still be PCs.
But, people will still need a good office package for their tablets.
LO's portable version is great for Windows based systems, but it would
be useful if someone would look into what it would take to make an
Android OS version of LO. That is a fast growing market that should be
considered for a future market of LO.
