In and Out Of Office: Putting iPads To Work | Walt Mossberg | Personal Technology | AllThingsD

Walt Mossberg provides an overview of some iPad options for working with PC files

So, here’s a brief primer on how to get such documents into and out of an iPad, and how to view, edit and create them on the tablet. This isn’t an in-depth product review, though I’ve tested every product and method I will mention here. It’s merely a quick, practical guide to how to work with documents on an iPad.
