what I actually meant with my perhaps too self-satisfied pithy post was that whether or not an immersive Office is ready or will be ready for Win8 release, I'm sure they will have a suite of consumer-oriented apps similar to the built in WP7/smart phone apps (or Windows Live Essentials): music, photos, maps, search, social networking, messaging, games. They'll probably fund internal and external development of other key apps as well, again like WP7.
