Full versions of Office 15 apps for Windows On ARM will probably not be free, but instead follow Office Starter 2010's lead.

And for this initiative we have one name to thank for, Google.
Ironic but very true.

Maybe there will be an Office 2015, as well. Maybe "Office 2015" will fix everything introduced in "Office 15", much like Office 2010 fixed new features introduced in 2007, which I thought was slow. It could've been the fault of Operating System at the time, though...which was Windows Vista. I love Office 2010 on Windows 7, but again, I still hate the ribbon. Thank God for shortcuts!

I love Office 2010 on Windows 7

Office 2010 is resource hungry and full of bugs. But i have to use it because my wife like so much to use it's bug ridden resource hungry Word Art.

I've never had any problems with it; it works fine and I love it.

As a side note, MS did include office mobile for free on the WP7, so probably something similar for the tablets, I presume. They let you create and edit Word, OneNote, PPT, and excel files on sharepoint, windows live, and can use lync.

Almost every version of Windows CE for mobile devices included Office, and they all ran on ARM.

I assume you've never tried to select objects using the select objects (marquee select) tool with a *.docx file then? Because it doesn't work unless it is an old format file, which is very annoying when you have a couple of dozen small objects in a small space. 2007 was fine for this, by the way.
