Opera Unite was reviewed on last week's Tekzilla. See the clip embedded:

If you can't watch the embeded version, here's a direct link to the episode. We're happy to say they gave Opera Unite thumbs up.

It's great to see Opera Unite getting some media coverage! It's a great technology and it has some really neat potential for many, many people.

Oh very nice!
I have a feeling people do trust stuff they hear on Tekzilla and do want to try it out... well i hope they do ;p
I myself stopped watching the show couple months ago, no real reason ;s

That page doesn't work right in 10.5. Can't scroll or click anything.

In build 3311 on XP it works ^^
I do not really need Unite but for some situations it might be very cool - have to wait for future

The Revision 3 Website has been Opera unfriendly for a long time now. I reported it several times over the last couple of years and nothing happens.

Turn Turbo on before you visit the page. It will at least stop from all the videos to autoplay. Or subscribe to RSS to get direct links to content.
Still, old design was much more user friendly. ;(

Has anybody actually been able to watch the video? It doesn't play in Chrome or IE either.

How about putting videos in the Ogg format after 10.5 for Mac and Linux is out?

Played fine for me with 10.50 on Win XP.

Cool. Can anyone confirm whether the media streamer works on an iPod Touch?

yeah, I actually came over to Opera BECAUSE of that episode, because I actually need that type of service but have VERY limited cash flow. I have to say Opera is an awesome browser, I think I'm about to switch from using my beloved Firefox
