Google acquires Quickoffice for an undisclosed sum in a clear move to bridge Google Apps and mobile with Quickoffice's mobile office productivity software.
Quickoffice makes office software for iDevices and Androids (in both mobile and tablet flavours), complete with Microsoft Office document editing, cloud compatibility and single-screen file management.
The purchase could also be an offensive against Microsoft, whose Windows 8 is both tablet friendly (with an ARM-compatible version) and obviously MS Office-ready.
Google has no other announcements regarding the purchase as yet, but it will surely integrate the Quickoffice suit with Google Apps.
