It's broken right now, but the idea was if you wanted to view an office document on the tablet, and it was on the Web already, you passed the URL to a web service URL and it returned a PDF > If that is unfeasible right now, what would be a good alternative?

At one point (before OO) I was using "strings" and a Tk scroller, which would let me read most Word 97 documents. At least, the ones that should have been sent as a text message, not the ones with lots of graphics and tables. There were things like "antiword" and "catdoc" as well which did a slightly better job.
