Since Ubuntu does not provide supported packages for OpenOffice 3.0, here is a simple method to install OOo3.

First, add deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/openoffice-pkgs/ubuntu intrepid main to you /etc/apt/sources.list, type this code as root:

echo "deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/openoffice-pkgs/ubuntu intrepid main" >> /etc/apt/sources.list

Then, do:

apt-get update
apt-get dist-upgrade

answer Yes to all questions here.
Tadaaa, OOo3 is there! Enjoy :)
