New Opera 9.5 Out Right Now – Firefox 3 Release Date Announced

The new Opera 9.5 final edition is out right now. If you want a fast, feature-rich, more user friendly browser – this one’s a keeper.

I always recommend Opera to folks that want a browser that “just works”. As much as I love Firefox, Opera has a lot of must-have features already built into it (Seed-Dial, Mouse Gestures, Bookmark Syncing, New Theme, the ability to open a page with another browser, etc.). No need for add-ons.

UPDATE: There's a more in-depth article and screenshot tour on the newest Opera at Lifehacker.

Speaking of Firefox, Mozilla has announced that the (finally) final version of Firefox 3 will be available Tuesday, June 17. As a guy who’s been using the release candidates, I can’t wait! Mozilla (Firefox’s parent) is trying for a software download world record with this release so get ready!
