Web browser fans and anyone jonesing for a faster Internet experience have a big reason to get out their downloading mice today, for Opera 10 is out of beta and ready for the masses. This major upgrade brings a range of new and updated features, from a flexible, enhanced tab bar to a more powerful compression feature for users on the go.
As with many significant upgrades, the most obvious new aspect of Opera 10 is a major visual refresh, thanks in large part to the hiring of legendary designer Jon Hicks of Hicksdesign. Beneath this pretty face are new features like "Better Tabs," which allow you to resize the tab bar simply by pulling down on it to reveal visual thumbnails of each site. This bar can also be shifted to the side or bottom of Opera's window, capitalizing on that "choice" thing that seems to be such a hit with discerning UI modifiers.
