    It's going to be pretty hard to reinvent what Al Gore originally invented!

    hmmmm! is an opera built portable version (with support for all platforms) on the horizon?
    ah, the date is 16th gotta wait to see.
  • Lorenzo CelsiThursday, June 11, 2009 4:48:41 PM

    Well, isn't "we will re-invent the Web" aiming a little too high?

    may I say, the text is broken here on my ubuntu 9.04? It wraps over the bottom of the image.
  • Lorenzo CelsiThursday, June 11, 2009 5:21:39 PM

    eheh, Ubuntu is not compatible with the reinvented Web :smile:

    :confused:

    My guess is that this product isn't available to the public yet. Sorry for being so frank but stating any of the technologies Opera have available for public testing today reinvent the web, is a bit of an overstatement.
  • ØThursday, June 11, 2009 6:48:38 PM

    now i want this to be cloud OS by opera!!!


    anyhow this is the legend

    "The Web is your browser. Discover how fast and fun the Web can be."

    so fast and fun...that is next opera freedom.


    but all this can be opera on a stick...that is maybe fast but fun not as much.

  • PeterThursday, June 11, 2009 8:37:26 PM

    I hope that it is something radical - I'm fed up of trying 'newer, faster browsers' and dumping them.

    Not interested in the Cloud - I prefer my apps. and data here.

    On USB - had that, done that, OK I guess.

    No, we need Something Exciting. Opera has a high standard to maintain.:heart:
  • MConorThursday, June 11, 2009 8:40:42 PM

    I have a feeling I'll be greatly disappointed, but I have high hopes for you guys :bigsmile:

    Opera Mobile 9.7 completely reinvents the Web browser on mobile phones. It provides an elegant browsing experience, while also making smartphones a new home for cross-platform applications. It marks a turning point in the ongoingevolution of the Web.


  • Andrew SamThursday, June 11, 2009 9:17:12 PM

    browser related and how the UI functions

    or

    something remote or cloud based

    or

    what i can't wait until 16th to get disappointed .. give some clues guys!!

    Opera is planning on releasing a new, hmm… how should I put it, well let’s just say that Opera is about to announce something really cool on June 16th.

    The company is framing this new ‘thing’ as ‘Reinventing the Web.’ I’m excited about it; it definitely has the potential to be a game changer (for some).

    Opera’s hint: We start our little story with the invention of the modern day computer. Over the years, the computers grew in numbers, and the next natural step in the evolution was ...

  • MConorThursday, June 11, 2009 9:30:44 PM

    The next step was windows, wasn't it?
  • dirkThursday, June 11, 2009 9:34:51 PM

    :lol: :lol: :lol: windows wasn't a step ... it was a TRY :lol:
  • RodrigoThursday, June 11, 2009 9:34:51 PM

    Maybe will the Opera's answer to Google Gears?
  • MConorThursday, June 11, 2009 9:37:42 PM

    :lol: Ok, so maybe not. But if Opera had an OS, it would greatly increase the publicity of it.
  • dirkThursday, June 11, 2009 9:39:50 PM

    :bigsmile: if opera had an OS we would be dancing on the moon :bigsmile:
  • MConorThursday, June 11, 2009 9:45:35 PM

    Hell Yeaah :bigsmile: An OS that worked for a change.
  • dirkThursday, June 11, 2009 9:47:27 PM

    :bigsmile: and the super bowl would be broad casted exclusively from mars city :bigsmile:
  • MConorThursday, June 11, 2009 9:49:49 PM

    :lol:
  • Andrew SamThursday, June 11, 2009 9:50:38 PM

    maybe it's something like google wave :wink:
  • Knut Remi "DrLaunch" LøvliThursday, June 11, 2009 10:00:39 PM

    After looking at some clues left by Opera Software around the web, I believe it might be cloud computing related.
    Perhaps a way to integrate web services into Opera, perhaps file management, or an interface for various web services.
  • MConorThursday, June 11, 2009 10:03:53 PM

    an interface for various web services.

    Oh christ just release it now. You wouldn't tell us it'd be out thursday if it wasn't done now
  • Deli SoetiawanFriday, June 12, 2009 2:00:46 AM

    A new better world of worldwideweb (WWW)?

    Carakan? But they say it will not be in Opera 10...

    New UI? We've seen already in pre-beta, not much different than new skin

    HTML5? The draft isn't finish by W3C...

    Cloud computing? What to do with Opera? Maybe something more with Opera community?

    We are! We’ve put the internet on a USB stick so that you can always have a connection wherever you are!...? We already see Portable Opera (Opera on USB)

    Well let see it on June 16th

    The one that i know about Opera and June 16th was this
