So remember you heard it first on MalwareTips!
 
You can download a 60 day trial of Microsoft Office 2013 Professional Plus Here: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/evalcenter/jj192782.aspx

You can take it for a test drive and see if you like it
 
Lol, i've been using it for months (?) now. Didn't really think it wasn't released yet until I read this :).
Finally !
 
It is available on technet and MSDN as a 60 day trial.The official retail version will be released sometime in January 2013
 
None of the version is the official retail version.

Sure even windows 8 and Windows 7 were available long before they came out,but the official release date for Windows 8 is still 26 Oct 2012.

and anyway when Office 2013 is officially released it will be available through all channels, i.e you can buy is from Microsoft or even a retailer like PC world.
 
Oops sorry I mistyped not October it was mid November. Hehe so silly of me and It is the official MSDN iso as its SHA-1 and MD5 are exact so it is bound to be the official iso. I think it would be illegal to post the link or explain how I got to it but I can reply in PM :P

That is correct.The only version that is out officially to Technet & MSDN Members is a 60 day evaluation copy of Office 2013 Professional Plus.It is ,like the Final RTM versions of Windows 8, for all intents and purposes the same as the retail releases version.You were able to activate it using KMS Activator w/ phone activation but I am not sure if it can still be done.I have the evaluation copy installed but I will probably just go back to my preactivated office 2010
