Microsoft Office Mobile 6.1 due out soon

There's good news, and there's bad news, and we'll be hitting the latter first. Days ago, reports flooded the net claiming that an Office Mobile upgrade that would allow viewing / editing of Word, Excel and PowerPoint files created in Office 2007 was available. Unfortunately, it turned out to be a mistimed leak, so we're back to testing our patience for now. On the bright side, we do have a good indication of what this free upgrade (for Office Mobile 6.0 users) will bring, which reportedly also enables users to "view and extract files from compressed .zip folders." So just hold tight, the update should be flowing out for real "within the next two weeks."
