MobileSheets for Windows 8 tablets

In the meantime, MS isn't really a very demanding app in terms of resources, processing power, etc. and I think this is a case where an emulator might well be more practical than rewriting the code for Windows. For example, it runs well enough for practical use under DuOS and I expect the emulator to improve as time passes.

For those that are switching from using MS on Android to Windows, they will most likely miss MS and search for a way to get MS on their Windows tablet. Emulation could become a good option here, no problem.
However, if someone buys a Windows tablet, and does not have any prior experience with MS, they would not know to even look for MS because it certainly would not appear on the Windows app store when they did a search. My point is that from a business standpoint it makes sense to create a dedicated Windows MS app. Especially because there is no good alternative right now; MS would pretty much have the whole Windows market to its self.

I did find something very interesting that could completely change the Windows 8 app market: http://www.androidcentral.com/microsoft-...dows-phone (I fixed the link)
I could not find any recent activity or news on that, though.
