Nice! However, I had to replay the last scentence to get it. At first I thought you guys said that this version of Opera is free, as in "with no relation to", Opera.com. I was like... --> -- > --> -->

Excellent video! You clearly pointed out the main reasons to switch now... if you haven't already.

Why did you put it here in Flash? We have converted it to ogg and put in a video element as it deserves

jajaja, this is great but, I tried to publish this on my Facebook profile and I received a message telling me that some "users" had reported the content as offensive!!!
I think you should do something about this!!!
Facebook sucks by the way.

Will there be some implementation of this on televisions across Europe? Or is it a toy for the web-savvy only?

Excellent, Amazing, Opera won the race.
I started loving Opera;
Opera has no matches, no words;
FaisalFriday, March 5, 2010 9:22:41 PM
Opera is fast, secure, modern, good downloading options, auto updateable, opera unite; email client, rss reader, widgets, notes, bookmarks management, etc.

All in one...

& now with more excellent features; like good integration with Windows 7; Jump List; Download Status in Taskbar, etc.

Simply Excellent!

feels great by using opera. its speedy, nice and interesting.
all we want are here.
am loving it.
StanleySaturday, March 6, 2010 4:54:08 PM
ok...this is for users who already know what is opera...

for ballot screen users I have identified some improvements.
they are not interested for any engines...

most important: they dont know what is opera link, unite and turbo: these are important featues and you should talk about them more...also about bittorrent clients, mouse gestures etc..

the normal users are not interesting what is it: BUT WHAT DOES IT DO!

try to think more from the user site of view!

I think maybe you should leave the video maknig to the professionals... I'm pretty sure the Opera guys know what they are doing.

This leads me to a certain question... when do we get to see WebGL and hardware acceleration?
Are there any (in-)official timelines available concerning these important technologies?

We at least know both are being worked on. IMO it is likely we will see HW acceleration soon, but WebGL, sadly, might be farther away.

I really hope to see it until the end of this year. There are rumors that there might be a JS/WebGL compo on one of the big demoscene parties (hint!) and a certain person is trying to put Opera on the list of supported browsers.

I'd say their 3D is looking pretty good.
