How To Create New Documents with Office Mobile on the Smartphone

Mike Temporale has a nice piece on creating documents if you are a smartphone user. 

For some reason Microsoft has decided that Windows Mobile Standard users (previously known as Smartphones users) will not need to create new documents on their mobile devices using the long overdue Office Mobile suite (more discussion on that can be found over here) For the record, Pocket PC users (now called Professional users) have had this functionality since day 1, but something happened when porting Office to the Smartphone platform and the ability to create documents was cut out.

However, all is not lost. There is a solution. A rather simple solution that takes up just under 42KB of space on your device. You can create blank Word and Excel documents on your desktop, mark them as Read Only and transfer those files to your phone. Then when you open Word or Excel you can simply select the blank documents and off you go to create your thesis or memoirs.

…and you can find this solution here at Smartphone Thoughts
