$119 (in Australia, at least) is too much for me to try editing capabilities. How about you keep the price but only prevent me from saving? I need to know how it feels editing the documents before I commit to such price.

The Office 365 website offers a free months trial.

Ok, but it may be completely different from using the actual app.

For example, GMail app is way slower and irresponsive in the iPad than accessing directly from gmail.com in Safari.

The trial should let you download and use the real app - not sure if the confusion was because the poster above said "Office 365 website"
