In this increasingly mobile world in which we live, having access to information on the go is no longer a nicety; it has become a necessity of the business world. You could lug your laptop around with you, but if you like your shoulders you may want to consider a lighter option such as your iPhone or iPod touch. With the help of Doc2, you can turn your phone into a mobile productivity center.

Doc2 affords you a wide range of ways to use and manipulate your data so you can do what you need without a computer. You can store them in a custom folder, which is handy when you need to keep things organized by sender or project. As for from where you get your documents, a wide variety of options are available for importing. You can get your docs from your Google Docs account, an iDisk or a WebDAV. You can also see a wide variety of information about files such as their size and extension type. That may be a very good thing to turn on. From a security point of view, knowing your extension type can save you from getting an unpleasant malicious code download.

Formatting/editing and file creation are simple enough, including the ability to insert images and tables. But just in case you get lost there are a wide variety of tutorials that can help you past the learning curve. Just be aware that you need web access (WiFi or a 3G connection) to have access to the help file. Hooking into your Google Docs is as simple as putting in your user name and password. All of your organizational structures will still be there. Just be aware that any files that are not filed will be settled on the bottom of the listing.

On the whole, this application is a solid choice for anyone who wants to manage their documents on the go. The application allows for your to work with Word 97-2003 .doc files.
