You're aware of Adobe AIR, right? It supports cross platform AS3 development to both iOS and Android. I think it could have been a contender for winning the 'cross-platform-mobile-dev-tool" war; but Adobe abandoned it along

My office 365 Home install is not cloud based in any way as far as I can tell. All the 'traditional' office programs such as Excel and Word are installed locally. There may be some cloud integration to OneDrive or something simila
