Opera Software is introducing the first look at Opera 10, the next generation of its web browser. An alpha version of Opera 10 is now available here.
This release gives people a taste of Opera’s new rendering engine, Opera Presto 2.2—the foundation of all future Opera 10 products. Opera Presto 2.2 offers approximately a 30 percent faster browsing experience as compared to Opera Presto 2.1, introduced in Opera 9.5 in June, according to the folks at Opera Software.
Opera has fine-tuned its standards support and, as a result, Opera 10 alpha achieves an Acid3 100/100 Test score. This version also provides Web developers with a whole range of new technologies for building better Web sites.
Other new features in Opera 10 alpha include spell checking as you type, as well as auto-updating to the latest versions as they become available. Opera Mail also has added support for HTML formatting of e-mails.
