Achieves an Acid3 100/100 Test score

Opera Software has introduced the very first model of Opera 10. An alpha version of Opera 10 is now available here.

This release is meant to give 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 an approximately 30 percent faster browsing experience as compared to Opera Presto 2.1, introduced in Opera 9.5 in June 2008.

The company says that the 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 websites.

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.
