I don't see this ever happening on mobile or tablet. No one is going to sit there and create a spreadsheet on a smartphone, no matter how big the screen size is. Once you have email, a PDF viewer, and a spreadsheet viewer (already available), what more could you possibly need?
Apple's pricing is right. It's uncomfortable to sit and stare at a tablet or smartphone for hours at a time, nevermind interacting with it (no matter how good swipe is, it will never replace a keyboard+mouse or a game controller).
