Apple Hints at Upcoming iWork Refresh in Latest OS X Mountain Lion Preview

Since the launch of iCloud, Apple has been hard at work updating their apps to work with their new cloud service: Photo Booth and Aperture were updated with Photo Stream support; Pages, Keynote, and Numbers brought cloud-based document editing and storage to iOS; OS X was quickly updated to support the service.

One major piece of Apple software has so far been entirely left out of the iCloud party so far, however: iWork for Mac. Apple hasn’t released a new version of their Mac productivity suite since 2009, leaving many to wonder what the company has in mind for their popular word processing, spreadsheet, and presentations apps.
