It happens frequently -- suddenly the content will no longer scroll when I try to scroll. The row numbers and the scrollbar update properly, but the content itself is frozen in place, although I can still edit it.

So I was a bit shocked to see a 1/2 star. So here's my rating after 2 years usage. All 4 stars (because shure there are some rare Excel files that can't be opened). The calculating options could be a bit easier to explain. But it never crashed.

The developer is most helpful and responds quickly.
So keep up the good work, thanks.

Excel compatibility has been pretty good, with no problems sharing files with Windows Excel users.
Like many, I bought iWork 08 as soon as it came out. Numbers is a slick application (reminds me of an old Mac Spreadsheet called Trapeze) and overall I like it. But Tables is much faster when using lots of data and overall feels more responsive. I often use Tables with data extracted from databases as CSV files to "massage" and analyze the data and assorted other such needs. Tables is better then Numbers for actually crunching numbers and data. Try importing a 23401 row / 33 column CSV file into Numbers and hear your MacBook Pro fan kick into overdrive for a while...
Numbers is great for presentations, where you have a limited amount of information that is usually going into Pages or Keynote. In some cases I will crunch data in Tables, and then copy/paste results of that into Numbers for use in Keynote.
Oddly enough, Tables also has more control over the formatting of cells, particularly numbers.
In my toolbox, there is a place for both and I for one am super happy to never use Excel again. The cost of Tables and iWork together is still cheaper then getting MS Office and provides a much better experience for the user.

Apple has made no public announcement of that product so it's only a rumor (maybe based at least on the trademark registration?) unless you're privy to information that's intended to be kept private.

Excel workbooks, formulas, formatting, etc all appear just fine. Most of the Excel documents I use and share are not terribly complex, but I haven't had any issues with other Excel (OSX and Windows) users.
Tables development is moving along well and continuously getting better and worth the price. The developer is also very responsive to his users.

I like the look of the app and hope it takes off, but agree that interoperability with Pages is required. I still would not attempt to use this as a heavy lifter given that I got this type of error within the first 3 minutes of use.
