Thanks for the link... on a slight aside - the only thing that is still tying me to my office pc, is OneNote... I've built up a huge amount of information in it, for about 3 years, prior to my walking over to Mac - and its simply not feasible to let it go... Office365 is increasingly looking like an option now, though... and it is all the more appealing with a similar roll-out onto my iPhone...

Decisions, decisions...

....and, should iWork ever prove to be insufficient, there is always the option of https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/neooffice-mobile/id382174697?mt=8 or http://neomobile.neooffice.org/mobile/

OMG yes! I've been using iWork suite on my iPad and iPhone which is great.... so I thought I'm not getting Office365 and having to pay for an office suite I already have one thats doing the job, so since i have an existing 365 account ill give it a go!

The iphone app sucks... There reason I'm still using office on my mac is due to the fact that Pages isn't very good at serious documents. Neither is this iphone app from Microsoft though, the rendering of documents is subpar.

Existing data aside, have you ever considered evernote?

I use Evernote, but primarily for personal things. My OneNote on the office PC has 3 years worth of confidential client information in it, and whereas I could transfer it into something similar - the easiest would be if Office 2014(?) simply brought it over to Mac...

Unlikely. But hey... There are a couple of OSX apps that allow for the reading of Onenote files - but not proper editing as of yet - although this has been promised. Holding thumbs they come through with a decent product...
