MS doesn't typically release a viewer for Office products until well
after the current version has been on the market for awhile. It took
better than a year for the 97 viewer to appear (BTW, that was also the
first time they released such a thing) and the 2000 viewers appeared
well after the product entered the market.

Give it time, the viewers will be along presently, I'm sure.
