At the end of last week, Microsoft officially unveiled its new application, Office for iPad. People who purchase and download this app will have access to all of Microsoft's popular Office products - Word, PowerPoint and Excel among them - on their Apple tablets. Many in the technology industry hailed this move as a step in the right direction for the company, especially as they get continued press for their ending of Windows XP technical support next week. Microsoft Office for iPad will be very familiar to those who have ever operated a PC or a Macbook.

Here are a few important takeaways from the announcement:

• Cannot print: While Microsoft also said they are working on developing a printer for this new feature, it is not currently available. Since you cannot print from Office like you would on a traditional computer, you must email your documents to yourself and print them from a standard computer.
• There are actually three apps: While Word, Excel and PowerPoint are all available for the public to download, they are not bundled into one big app. You must download each separately if you want them on your tablet.
• Uses voice: One of the cooler features of the new Office for iPad is that it will follow voice commands. This allows the user to take notes or jot something down without having to actually type. Simply open up a word document and begin speaking.
