Announcing OffiViewer for Android

I got myself an Android phone (the shiny new HTC Magic) a few weeks ago. Could I resist the temptation to write an app for it? Of course not.

So OffiViewer 0.1 (beta) enters the Android Market today. Initial price: free.

Description:

OffiViewer 0.1 (beta) is an office document viewer.

Can display the following document types: PDF, Word (doc, docx), Excel (xls, xlsx), PowerPoint (ppt, pptx), OpenDocument (odt, ods, odp), RTF. Max size 1MB.

Uses the Internet connection to transfer your document to a server in order to convert it to a viewable format.

No prizes for guessing that the server-side technology uses, among other things, JODConverter.
