Opera Kestrel (9.50 Alpha) Experiences

I really love to use this software!
It's fast as hell, it's great in displaying websites and it's free!
Which browser do/did you use and why?
Did anyone already used these opera sync? I don't even know where to find it! >.<

Kestrel looked impressive? Wink

hehe, you know, it was supposed to be an intermediate release, and only has a *small* subset of the improvements to expect from the next big release (probably to be named Opera 10).

If "only" kestrel got you hooked, penegril will lock you into opera beyond the point of no return Wink

RE: Opera Kestrel (9.50 Alpha) Experiences

I HAVE TEH COMPLANITS!

-Sometimes closing the window is not enough, it still remains in the memory (then you need to kill the process by Task Manager)
-The Wand thing is gay.
-Won't load some page's features properly. F5 needed.

Also IE7 and FF users will have trouble with the UI and fucking shortcuts. ^^"

Other than that, pretty usable and faster than FF.

RE: Opera Kestrel (9.50 Alpha) Experiences

I didn't heard about Peregrine yet, so nice to point that out... but I don't think it will be released 2007! Wink
And kestrel is impressive, also at this point!
Some points that get on my nerves are that I need to add to nearly all downloaded files the extension and that it sometimes lost the connection and I need to close it and reopen the browser, but it's an alpha, so it isn't that bad thing...
I really like wand, I don't know what's so bad about it, when you are the only user on the PC... and if you aren't then you can disable it!
So no big thing IMHO...
I am also a Opera Fanboy till 7.x so I would never complain about the UI...
Did someone already tried the Opera Sync thing? I really like to know how does it work and where do I find it!

Hundreds of bugs have been fixed since the first alpha releases. You might wanna give it a chance again, miretits Wink
