Apple Enhances iWork.com Beta With Sharing, Mobile Interface Features

Apple today sent an e-mail to users of its iWork.com beta announcing several enhancements involving document sharing and access to the service from the iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad.
- Share documents on websites and social networks. iWork.com allows you to share a document by creating a public link. Use the link to share your document with large groups or on websites and social networks. There's no need to set a password or send an invitation. Anyone with the public link can view your document but cannot add comments or notes.
- Improved Shared Documents page. Download documents shared on iWork.com without leaving the Shared Documents page. You can also track the number of views your publicly shared documents receive.
- Refined user interface. A redesigned Sign In and Shared Documents page for iPad, iPhone, and iPod touch makes it easy to access your documents while on the go. The new interface and improved scrolling help you find your shared documents faster. Visit www.iwork.com from your iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch to view your shared documents.

(View all)Has anyone tried using this service? Is it possible I need a different login/password?:confused:
Completely forgot this even existed.
I hadn't forgotten - but when my average Keynote file is >500meg, it's NEVER going to be a cloud based tool I need.
iWork.com getting some integration love can only mean good things for the Apple ecosystem as a whole, especially for the iPad.
I just tried using my Apple ID and Password to log in at iWork.com. I was not able to login. I've been using the same ID for more than six years - I just bought a new iMac two weeks ago and have been to 2 "One to One" classes at my local Apple Store in Novi, MI.

In Pages, look under the Share menu.
Correct me if I'm wrong but this is a huge short-coming!
Apple needs to make this service really cheap, nowhere near $99/year like MobileMe. It needs to be $19/year tops.
Or even include it in the price for MobileMe and charge 20 or 30 a year for non-MobileMe members.
