I’m trying out the new Opera 10 beta.  It looks amazing.  It’s much faster than Firefox, Chrome, and Safari, and has a bunch of new features that I am starting to really like.

Check out the tabs at the top.  You can drag the tab bar down a bit to display thumbnails of all your tabs!  I know there’s a Firefox addon that does the same thing, but when it’s already incorporated with your browser, it seems to run a bit faster.  Also the search box is resizable like in Firefox.

The speed dial feature has been enhanced slightly.  If 9 speed dial pages aren’t enough, you can add more.  It allows for up to 25 pages.  An interesting feature is the ability to add a background image to the speed dial page, just in case white is too boring.

I’ve been waiting for Opera 10 to get out of Alpha stage for a while.  I’m certainly impressed, mainly by its speed.  It’s just so fast!  I also see an improvement over Opera 9 in video.

Check it out and see what you think of it.
