Comments on: Run and Sync Quickoffice from Expansion Cards

Despite the large numbers of handhelds with expansion cards, support for them among the large software companies is still unpleasantly small. In an attempt to partially remedy this, ToySoft has released Quickstart, which lets users launch and manage Quickword and Quicksheet documents and worksheets from a VFS expansion card. All the Quickoffice files are synchronized during HotSync. It's available now for $10.

 Looks like a neat hack ...

for someone who needs this now, but I really hope that the QuickOffice folks are planning to include real VFS support in their software.

Advantage by Toysoft works well. But I agree the Office Suite Apps need to support VFS. I have over 8MB of files on my SDC and fortunately DocsToGo offers VFS support in 4.0.
