Back in 2011, we caught wind of the possibility that Microsoft could be bringing their Office productivity suites onto the iPad. This is a no-brainer actually given the ubiquitous nature of the iPad, but for whatever reason, Microsoft has yet to release the app fast forward three years later.

There have been conflicting reports suggesting that Office for the iPad would only be released as a touch-friendly version for Windows was released, but then later it was suggested that the app might even see a release in the first half of 2014. Now according to a report from Reuters, it has been revealed that Office for the iPad is actually good to go, and that they’re just waiting on Microsoft’s new CEO, Satya Nadella, to decide on a launch date.

Given the popularity of the iPad and how Microsoft’s Office suite is just as popular and used by students, office workers, and government officials around the world, the combination of both hardware and software does make sense. However last we heard, Office for the iPad would only arrive once the touch-friendly version of the app for Windows is released. Well the good news is that perhaps we might not have to wait too long after all, thanks to a report from ZDNet’s Mary Jo Foley.

According to Foley, she has heard from her sources that Office for the iPad could be arriving sooner than we think, and that it might even arrive ahead of the Windows 8 touch-friendly version as well. “According to one of my contacts, Ballmer OK’d the suggestion by the Office team that they’d bring Office for iPad to market as soon as it was ready, even though that would likely mean before the Windows 8 version.” Foley also states that she has heard that the app would see a release within the first half of 2014, while previously her sources informed her that its release would be in the Fall of 2014, so for those looking forward to some familiar productivity apps on their tablets, this is definitely something worth keeping an eye out for.
