Release date: January 29 2013
As everyone probably heard by now, Office 2013 was finally released to the general public. Corporations with volume licenses have had access for several weeks, as have MSDN/TechNet subscribers, so it's somewhat of an anticlimax release. Even so, I would feel remiss not to mention it.
While Office 2013 not yet available to all Office 365 (hosted services) subscribers with software rights, Office 365 SharePoint sites are migrating and current subscribers to email services are rumored to be moving to Exchange 2013 at the end of February 2013.
