Microsoft blogger Paul Thurrott has tweeted that Microsoft is indeed working on apps for the iPad."</em></p><p><img src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/600/at/auto/1284952147.usr105505.jpg" style="border: 1px solid #d2d2bb;" /></p><p>This isn't really surprising. Microsoft would certainly like to get on as many platforms as they can, and it's hard to avoid a platform as widespread as iOS. They have programmers skilled in Objective-C in their Office division, so I suspect one of the first apps we'll see is a competitor to Apple's iWork apps for iPad. Anyone have a guess as to what Microsoft is working on? </p>
