Thanks for the update. The best gets better. I am talking about opera

From Opera.com

Peregrine
We are now working on the next generation of the world’s best browser, codenamed Peregrine.

Latin: Falco peregrinus
Norwegian: Vandrefalk (Wandering falcon)

The Peregrine Falcon is often stated to be the fastest animal on the planet in its hunting dive, the stoop, which involves soaring to a great height and then diving steeply at speeds commonly said to be over 322 km/h (200 mph). A study testing the flight physics of an 'ideal falcon' found a theoretical speed limit at 400 km/h (250 mph) for low altitude flight and 625 km/h (390 mph) for high altitude flight.

Peregrine is the codename for v10. Codename for v9.5 was Kestrel.

Also

In related news Opera has partnered with Baidu.com - most popular search engine in China. As a result of this partnership anyone accessing the Internet using Opera’s Chinese-language desktop browser can immediately enjoy Baidu’s powerful search directly from the browser start page.

Thanks for the update.

I am unable to download Opera from Ubuntu 8.04, it opens this link in a new tab & then the download even doesn't start

All sites opening great. Ultra fast. But still Gmail Labs aint compatible with Opera.

Google labs work fine on my opera 9.5 , what is the problem you are getting a image will be helpful.

*www.google.com/transliterate/indic/Hindi
not working in opera

^ Smit, Gmail labs.
s18,

4. Does my system support transliteration?

The transliteration feature is only supported in Internet Explorer versions 6.0 and higher on Windows (preferably Windows XP), and Firefox 1.5 and higher on Windows and Linux.

Thanks...Time to check opera as final is out..

The new look is damn good, thanks for the news.

Thanks for the tip. Yes I was using that option in the hope that Opera will optimse all pages for my display resolution. I didn't knew it would cause trouble. Deactivated it and pages are loading properly now.

Any idea whats the difference between the Classic Installer at 4.8MB and the Default installer at 6.7 MB? The Classic Installer option does not come on the default download page, but comes up if you choose "Show other versions" and go through some links... And I like the new skin... Its very elegant... Though I wish there was a good distinctive difference between tabs (new, unread tab; read tab; tab being opened; etc)

I've always loved Opera and this edition is simply great! Major problem is, people who design websites don't care how their page looks if it loads on Opera. So, this will be irritating at times. We still can't exploit Gmail's features to the fullest

No diff as far as the end product goes. Ones is .msi and one is .exe

opera 9.5 fails acid3 at 83 in Linux.I thought opera passed acidtest

I think the new look of the Opera looks a bit tacky. I preferred the simpler look of the previous versions. Firefox looks several times better with its default theme and small icons. And of course none of these come close to Safari.

Opera's bleeding edge internal build passes acid3. As a proof of this opera had released a special build called wingogo or lingogi (depending upon OS).
But, they had made it clear that Opera wont include all of those changes before v10.

opera 9.5 fails acid3 at 83 in Linux.I thought opera passed acidtest

Opera's public build can render acid3 tests perfectly. But it doesnt pass the test, because it doesnt render it within the time limit. Therefore, the internal(private) builds are now bent on making the rendering engine faster. So much better than other browsers which cant even render the test properly

still problem with heavy flash site

see the cpu usage

I've just tested firefox 3 ...it has improved a lot and a lot faster also

....but execpt google toolbar none of my previous extensions are working in it

...on the other hand the page rendering n speed of opera 9.5 is much better.....in the acid 3 test score of the 2 browsers >>>>> FIREFOX -> 71 , OPERA -> 83 ....I have been using opera for 3years n I think it is the best browser out there

and IE 7 got 4 points in Acid3 test.

I really have to thank Digit mag for introducing opera to me. I got the trial version(when it was a paid software) a very long time ago, when digit first distributed it on its CD, and it was love at first site hehe

how to make "ctrl+b" key combo into "paste & go"

by default, it takes us to bookmarks.

S

Tools->Preferences->Advanced Tab->Shortcuts - Here, select the current keyboard setup option and select edit, in the search field, start typing "b ctrl" and the options that fit will come up... Choose b ctrl, and edit the right hand entry as Paste and go...
