By now, you've probably heard the news: Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT ) will put a "touch-first" version of its Office suite on the iPad soon. Fool contributor Tim Beyers says it's a welcome move. The iPad is a huge platform, after all. Tens of millions of the devices are already in corporate hands. Giving those users the option to work natively with Microsoft productivity apps could juice sales, and give Mr. Softy a leg up in the race to supply business software to the growing number of tablet-wielding workers.

Why haven't I bought? Because there are many great dividend stocks out there. Our analysts recently identified three stalwarts you might be interested in.
