And it's a big one: The firm is releasing a preview versions of its Office apps for Android tablets, new Office apps for iPhone, and updates to its Office apps on iPad.

Uh, why? All WP 8/8.1 devices should receive WP10 when it launches except some of the absolute entry level phones

The Office Mobile currently included in Windows Phone is a cut-down junior version running off a single hub.

The proper full-scale touch-enabled Office apps are coming to WP in 2015.

By the way, Excel was first developed and released for the Apple Mac. Only later did it appear for Windows.
