Just tried it and oh yeah, QO has MUCH better text scaling, impressively so (10 pt type max zoomed to about 24 pt with barely any edge blur or aliasing). Bitmaps look better too. One issue, QO won't recognize RTF files.
I e-mailed myself a doc, docx, and rtf file. The email app recognized all of them as "word" files (the "W" icon). I tapped and held on each attachment to save them. The QO document list didn't show the rtf file. I tried to open the rtf from e-mail. QO started, but all I got was a blank window (all white, and the QO menu didn't respond). I think i'm going to try some other files and post this in another thread.
UPDATE:
I ran some test documents through Quick Office:
1 - QO does not recognize rtf or csv files, but WebOS does, and assigns them the appropriate icon and allows you to save them to the TP.
2 - Office 97-2003 versions of Word and Powerpoint documents preserve more content, image cropping, rotations, etc than 2007-2010 versions. Powerpoint was pretty bad, the pptx file saved all the cropped data, but QO didn't apply the cropping, it just stretch/shrunk the image to fit the assigned size, so annotations (arrows and markings) pointed to the wrong portion of an image.
3 - Excel files don't zoom out very far... It appears to be limited to about 7 columns by 16 rows. It will allow you to see a cells equation when selected.
In general, QO is a bit slow on dragging, page rendering, zooming. This seems to get better the longer a document is open, so I think its cache related within QO. Document quality was good, font conversion was more or less limited to serif or san serif, but bold, italic, super and sub scripting, strikethrough, and colors were well preserved. Line feeds were not converted, but paragraphs, line spacing, lists, headings, outline numbering, and bullets looked good. Word graphic elements and equations did not come through at all.
It's a good "out of the box" solution for office documents, and better than my blackberry,but I need better performance before I buy the full version (when available).
