... And then sync to Dropbox?

I have an iPad1. I would like to edit and share Word docs among my project teammates using Dropbox.

I don't think Pages can sync with Evernote or Dropbox. Is that correct?

Pages can import and export to DropBox, but it takes some workarounds; and they are not perfect.

For what you want to do one of the other office suites may be a better choice. I believe all of them have direct DropBox support, and they tend to be a bit more compatible with Word. I seem to remember someone mentioning that DropBox can be used with those as well; or maybe not.

Here a some member reviews os the popular office suites.

OnLive and CloudOn are probably also looking into, or at least keeping an eye on.
