Microsoft Office for iOS and Android Arriving in November?

BGR reports that Microsoft is planning to launch Office for iOS in November this year. With the app's splash screen referring to it as "Office for iOS", the source also speculates that the app may also be coming to the smaller screens of the iPhone and iPod touch. In addition to its iOS effort, Microsoft is also said to be brining Office to Android-based tablets at the same time.

Microsoft had indicated soon after the launch of the original iPad that they may actually bring Office to the iPad platform but did not have any plans for such an effort. The daily has since claimed several times that Office for iPad works, and reporting back in February that they had hands-on time with a prototype of the app.

Microsoft denied the claim, but The Daily still continues to stand by its report. Suggesting that there may have been a misunderstanding somewhere along the lines. Microsoft stated that the situation would become "clear in the coming weeks". This kind of gives it away that Microsoft maybe releasing the app  But no such clarification has yet been said.
