Default Opera 9.5 Beta 1 released
October 25th, 2007



Quote:
As promised the Desktop team at Opera Software has released the first beta version of the new Opera 9.5 codename Kestrel. The first (public) beta version of Opera 9.5 boasts tons of changes and it includes features like:

Opera Link

- Now Opera lets you synchronize every part of your life: Synch your Speed Dial and Bookmarks through My Opera; take your bookmarks with you on your phone, or add Opera-power to your game consoles and experience the Internet Channel.

History Search

- Ever forget to bookmark an interesting site, just to find that you can't find it again, no matter how hard you search? No worries now, because Opera 9.5 brings you built-in Full Text History Search.

Enhanced Mail

- Opera's built-in Mail application is better than ever, with improvements to speed, performance, stability and usability. Suped up with a new backend and IMAP support, Opera Mail is free to use.

Status bar with Zoom and Image control

- Opera's excellent zoom function and the bandwidth saving control of images are now made easily available on the Status bar. Tip: Add your own buttons like the developer console to the Status bar.

Restore closed windows and changes in Speed Dial

- Kestrel has an improved version of the much loved trash-can feature by adding support for opening closed windows, not only the closed tabs. You can also use the undo function now for Speed Dial.

Improved BitTorrent performance

- We added support for BitTorrent Peer Exchange to allow you to connect to more download hosts and improve your download speeds.

I've been waiting for Opera to be able to sync bookmarks, I have to go between two machines and its essential for me to have my bookmarks at a whim. The mail feature will also be nice. I just need to get it to play nice with GTK2.

Does Opera still have the issue of crashing randomly? If it doesn't, I might go back to it.

Not at all. I'm using v9.24 & it's rock solid.
