Default Pad Questions

Will any Android Pad run:

Quicken?

OpenOffice?

A robust word processor?

In general, how equivalent is a pad device to a laptop computer in terms of applications it will run?

Quick answer to your last question - not much. If you think that it will, then personally, I think you are setting yourself up to be disappointed.

An Android tab will run some apps like Docs2Go or other such apps dealing with Office docs (including word processors) - but I am not sure if all the apps work with OO files. I don't think Quicken will work.
