Office workers are going to do a lot of work on tablets, but the work they will do on tablets mightn't fit into the Microsoft Office paradigm.

For example, when it comes to meeting minutes, Microsoft Word doesn't stack up well against Evernote.

Sure, but that's what OneNote is for (and there's a touch-optimized OneNote app). The current weak touch support is still good enough to do basic editing on tablets, and is definitely fine for viewing. Touch-optimized interfaces for all parts of the suite would be nice, but I find it hard to fault the Office team's prioritization.

I personally feel that OneNote is vastly superior to Evernote.
