I would welcome it. But if it is Only web-based and only usable online, and not an offline program I can install on my computer, I'll use something else. What if, for some reason, I can't get online at work and need to get my work done, a web-based iWork would be useless to me. Imagine a company with 200 employees on their computers with a network failure. Imagine the lost productivity and money. I would have no part in a completely web-based iWork.

It's always dangerous trying to predict what Apple will do, but I don't think there's any way they're releasing a web-only version as a replacement for the existing desktop software. They still don't have the bugs worked out of MobileMe webmail! An additional feature for MobileMe subscribers? That sounds plausible; though I remain skeptical at this point of Apple's ability to actually deliver compelling browser-based software.

I'll take less graphics in my UI for some snappier response times. Stable, fast, easy to use, secure, cheap, relevant and it needs to look nice too.

This HAS TO WORK ! This makes sense to me, it just HAS to be stable and NOT run like Mobile Me did this past summer. This HAS TO WORK !
