Thanks for the heads up, unkyUb....... :)

Have you tried it out ?

I might wait a few days and see what the comments are on the Opera forum.

Yes seems ok.....

It did drop a few things onto my bookmarks sidebar though...shortcuts to Bing,Ebay,Reddit,wiki,download.com(CNet) and one or two more,which I've forgotten.

Not very impressed with the turbo button...it took longer loading pages using that than normal mode  ;D

Just downloaded and installed.........all seems to be working fine.

@ unkyUb.........turbo, I found that too in an earlier version.......best leave off as it is designed as an aid to dial up connections.
                ......... these extra items on your personal bar/bookmarks menu. Go bookmarks>manage bookmarks and delete them...I did  ;D

@ AdrianH........I don't use speeddial, but it does look very fancy.. :D

Speed dial is brilliant, I couldn't live without it now.

My homepage is speed dial, I have the 26 most visited sites on there and just click without any opening bookmark panes/folders.

The only problem I have with Opera is compatibility issues with certain sites.I know you can choose to mask as/identify as Firefox/IE,but why isn't it compatible without the need to do this?

That is down to the site not being written to be compatible,many webmasters/site builders still only code for IE...............

This new version is a delight to use... :clap2:

I have been playing with Speed Dial and it is great.........huge improvement on previous version, and I will be populating and using it.
