Yes. The update will be available for WinRT devices to bring the Office up to RTM version. Think of it this way: WinRT devices will be on sale in ~2 weeks. There is no way that those are not already sitting in storage somewhere in retail chain. I expect preview might be "full version" in the 2nd wave of devices or at least devices manufactured after a specific date but that's a guess too...

I hope we have something in-between, the white theme is way too bright to look at and i wouldn't want something too dark.

The blue theme used in Office 2007 would be great.

I bet it's gonna look exactly like Preview. There is NO GUI team at Microsoft.

If it doesn't, I would be mildly happy.
