Opera 10.0 is out!

[the_leander]

And it runs bloody brilliantly!

Am just waiting for my (admittedly old) theme to get updated for the newer browser as there are a couple of minor niggles that simply weren't there under the previous version.

That said. It's faster, has in-line spelling correction and the caching option (opera turbo) makes it damn nice when my 3G connection decides to take a dump.

Truly, it is a remarkable and worthy upgrade from the 9.6 line.

Available for download here.

--update--

Looks like the twitter widget is broken... So will have to wait for that to get updated. The graphical glitch in the theme sorted itself out, which was nice.

--update 2--

Opera Voice doesn't work, same bug as befell 9.64. If you use text to speech a lot, the only workaround currently is to go back to 9.63

I'm using it now, under Windows. It's purty too. Been using Opera for years, and mostly happy with it. Main small problem I have; I think some web pages are written with Firefox compatibility in mind, and don't play quite so nice with Opera. Mostly I much prefer the Opera UI, though. Really don't like the way Firefox handles tabs.

I haven't been able to connect to the Debian repositories for a couple of days, so I guess the servers are getting thrashed a bit. Will be nice to have version 10 in Linux, where I spend most of my time now.

Another update:

Seems that the twitter widget isn't the only one broken - ALL widgets that require net access are now having issues.

And redownloading them doesn't seem to do the job.

Hm, I don't use those widgets (yet)
I just installed Opera 10 on Ubuntu, and damn, it flies!

Anyone using the turbo feature? I guess it may be useful for some people.

Yes, on a heavily capped 3G connection (£15 gets you 3Gb) it's an absolute godsend.

I've saved on average 50Mb or so a day. More thanks to the addition of Fanboy's Opera Adblock list.

Yes, your images end up looking like arse, but you can reload them in full quality individually if/when you want/need.

Been using it for years. Since version 7, I believe.

Only 7? I been using it since 3.62 (BeOS)

10.10 is out now, and comes with Opera Unite.

Still haven't fixed the speech system though.

This is because all pages will be re-routed through the opera servers (hope i've read it correctly). These servers compress everything including all the pictures. So they end up looking like jpeg-25 (or 10 ?) images.* That's why opera turbo is so fast.

Correct.

Useful only on slow networks however. Beyond 1Mb throughput it's actually slower in terms of throughput.
