Thanks rm20010 for this tip posted in Back Page News. Opera has just released Beta 1 of its newest offering. As always it"s a beta so don"t complain to us if stuff don"t work! The Opera servers are being hammered at the moment, so downloading might be slow.
Feature highlights:
- Speed boost in benchmarks over 10.53 (not much change since public alpha)
- Windows Aero Peek-like tab thumbnails that appear when you hover over tabs
- Windows 7 thumbnails disabled by default; turn them on via Preferences > Advanced > Additional tab options
- WebM video support restored
- Geolocation support restored
- Some related HTML5 stuff (Web Workers, Offline Web Applications, Cross-Document Messaging)
- Search suggestions for Wikipedia, Yandex, and Bing (now the default Speed Dial search engine)
Download: Opera 10.60 Beta 1 | 10 MB (Freeware)
