Good smartphone for MS Office

What's a good smartphone that can display MS office documents, such as word and excel? I was thinking of getting the Motorola MPX220, cuz I'm a M fanboy, but I have read more negatives than positives. Most importantly, does the MPX220 display office documents? I would prefer a flip smartphone but there isn't many of those. I'm willing to spend no more than $300 on a smartphone, will I find a decent one for that price? It also has to be good at being a phone. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I'm afraid no Smartphones will display MS Offices files out of the box.

The only option I've found is ClearVue Suite which lets you view Word, Excel, Powerpoint, PDF etc. It's not the greatest and lots of sideways scrolling is needed, but it's all we have.

What I prefer to do is convert the files to Repligo format to view on my phone. Repligo runs on your desktop so it doesn't help with email attachments you recieve, still stuck with ClearVue for that.

Repligo is the best viewer otherwise.
