Microsoft will be pretty busy in late January, as the company is planning to introduce several new products, such as the Surface with Windows 8 Pro, Office 2013 and Internet Explorer 10 for Windows 7.

As far as the new productivity suite goes, it seems like the Redmond-based software giant plans to release it on January 29, according to a notification posted on its website by Canadian retailer Future Shop and spotted by Neowin.

While pre-orders are now available, Microsoft is yet to confirm the release date, even though some sources familiar with the matter had previously hinted that the company is indeed planning to debut Office 2013 on January 29.

A preview version of Office 2013 is still up for grabs at absolutely no cost, so click here if you wish to register for a trial.

I hope MS have banished the horrible grey-scale font anti-aliasing in Office 2013. The blurry fonts make the suite unusable on a desktop PC.

I agree, the blurry fonts are horrible. I went back to Office 2010.

I thought that Office 2013 was out already. I have Office 2013 preview. Am I able to use it forever or is it only a trial.
