Next Version of Office for Windows Phone (Image and Feature)

With Windows Phone 8 of course will come the next version of office. Today on Microsoft’s Office Next blog, they detailed some of what we are to expect with the next version of office for Window Phone along with a picture.

With the capabilities that we’ve built into our roaming settings service, we’re able to create new settings that will roam with you across any connected device.  For example, Word and PowerPoint make it easy to get right back into your work by remembering where you left off in each document or presentation.  So, if you didn’t have time to finish reviewing an important document before you had to leave work, Word will remember what paragraph you were last reading/editing when you open that document on another machine. PowerPoint remembers the slide you were on so you don’t have to go hunting for that last edit in a long deck.

These features extend to your mobile device as well. For example, your Windows Phone will show your recent files for one-touch access while you are on the go.

You can also put a personal touch on your Office experience with your profile picture and by selecting a classy yet subtle decoration.  This will decorate the frame of your Office applications to suit your personality.  When sharing a PC with friends or family, this also helps make it clear at a glance who is signed into Office.

I am sure we will here more about the future version of office for Windows Phone 8 but so far it looks very promising. It would be pretty cool to be able to edit or read a document on my windows PC and then automatically bring up the same document just as a left it on my Windows Phone.
