I'm excited to see what his coding and design chops amount to. Microsoft hasn't released a one-person product in quite some time.

No sources. Wordpress blog with a negligible Google footprint. Story submitted by a 4-day old account. How credible is this?

I've seen the same article on The Verge and other reputable sites who say the information came from 'their sources' (probably people they trust and regularly get MS info from).

We'll just have to wait to be proven next week. How long can that take?

I do believe about a week.

It's probably going to be the crippled Office365 version wrapped in a native layer or something, right?

IIRC I've read like a year ago that Office for iOS was ready[0], but Microsoft didn't want to release it under Apple's terms. Since apparently Microsoft has been working on this app for quite some time, I would assume it's a native app. Microsoft wanted to work towards some exclusive deal with Apple[1] at least with regards to SkyDrive, but presumable this might have also been a consideration for Office.

But perhaps Microsoft can't afford to wait much longer anymore. It seems the world might not need Office as much as Microsoft would like to believe.
