Office for iOS?

A few months ago I wrote an article and recorded a video about Microsoft Office coming out for iOS. Now that I have a laptop running Windows 8 I was able to get Office 2010. Recently there was an announcement saying that the iOS version will be pushed back until late 2014.

Since I've used Office 2010 I noticed a lot of new things added, which got me wondering what will it be like on a iPhone. I mean would you really want it for your iPhone? I could see on a tablet but I doubt many people will be using it on their iPhone unless they get bigger screens.

 I enjoy Office 2010 but wouldn't be persuaded to get it for iOS unless, like I said iPhone screens get larger...but maybe that's why they're pushing things back to 2014...so they can design the system to be used with smaller screens with ease.

So what do you think? Will Office for iOS be a popular app for iPhones?  Do you believe (as I do) that it won't do as good as expected?
