Opera 9.6 Announced, Goes Desi
By: Tech2.com News Staff   |   Oct 10, 2008

Opera has released their latest desktop browser, Opera 9.6, targeting the Indian market, making the browser available in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu.

In addition to accelerating browsing speed and enhancing unique features such as Opera Link and Opera Mail in this release, Opera aimed to make its desktop browser as accessible as the Opera Mini browser for mobile phones among Indian Web users.

"India has definitely shown Opera the love with their devotion to Opera Mini. We are giving the love back today by ensuring that Indians from New Delhi to Tamil Nadu can use Opera in their own languages. This support also extends to our email client, Opera Mail," said Jon von Tetzchner, CEO, Opera Software. "I am excited to be in India during the launch of Opera 9.6, meeting with local fans and discovering what Opera can do to make Internet browsing in India even better."

With Opera 9.6, users can synchronize bookmarks between multiple computers - and even Opera Mini - on their mobile phone using Opera Link. They can get their favorite Web page with just one click with Opera's Speed Dial feature, write e-mails in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu, conserve bandwidth by turning off images and resume downloads after a departure.

Opera 9.6 in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu is now available as a free download at http://www.opera.com/.

To get Opera Mini in Hindi on your mobile phone, go to http://www.operamini.com/download/pc/generic/generic_advanced_midp_2/ and select 'Hindi' from the language select box; or visit mini.opera.com using your mobile phone browser and click on "Download in another language".

Opera Software currently has an office in Chandigarh, and has partnered with local companies including TATA, Spice Mobile and Meridian Mobile.

Opera is the best thing to have happened to internet. It has all that a browser needs and more. Have been using opera since 2005 and simply love it

Below one of them is saying why u should we use opera? He doesn't know that opera has revolutionized the internet we use today. Forget about the language, Do u know
Opera was the first one to introduce
1. Tabbed Browsing
1. Mouse Gestures
2. Built in search engine support
4. Email and chat support built in within browser
5. Voice recognition in browser,
6. Pop up blocker
7. Download Manager with pause, resume, torrent support.

The list can go and go and the others just copied it, just like Microsoft did with Netscape. The fact of the matter it opera innovates, while others follow on the footsteps of opera.
