Honestly iWork didn't work on the iPad the first time around because the performance wasn't there. I found Numbers and Pages too choppy for anything other than basic editing tasks.

Secondly lots of office apps are based on traditional paradigms and metaphors related to printed documents. I think the key insight will be to create a new document type that makes more sense for tablet consumption, and maybe this new document will lead to a new kind of office app less reliant on the keyboard and mouse.
