A new report is suggesting that Microsoft is targeting April 2014 for a launch of the next generation of Office products for Mac. The new software, tentatively called Office 2014 is on the Microsoft roadmap for next year, according to a source for ZDNet who say that the ‘Gemini 1.5′ update will hit in April of 2014 and that the iOS version of Office could arrive in October 2014, including the long rumored iPad version of Office.
Previous rumors had suggested that Microsoft would be looking to launch the iOS versions of Office as early as Spring 2013 and that the app would initially be free of charge for viewing documents but would require an in-app purchase for the ability to edit documents. The in app purchase price could be as high as $6 per month would would compare unfavorably with the one-ff $9.99 price of each of the iWork for iOS components.
