I picked up a Surface 3 today, loving it so far, big upgrade over my RT. However I can't seem to locate the Office 365 license key anywhere in the packaging, can somebody clue me in as to what I should be looking for? Is it a small card, a sticker on the plastic cover, something else I'm not seeing? Thanks.

There is no key in the packaging like some other devices which comes with a plastic card. You click the Office link in Windows once you boot it up on the Surface, and you get taken to a MS site to register the 365 subscription to either existing MS account or create a new one. There's another thread on here I think where people tried experimenting with it but I think in short, there's no way to cheat it.
