Opera 10 downloads

By Espen André ØverdahlEspenAO. Wednesday, September 2, 2009 12:28:49 PM

The results are in... When we launched Opera 9 back in 2006 we had 580,000+ something downloads the first day.

Opera 10? Oh boy... We are getting close to 2,000,000 downloads - and that's only the first day! No wonder the servers acted sluggish yesterday.

Hope you are enjoying Opera 10 so far. Seems like many do.

Odd and Even go to ChinaOpera 10 hits 10 million!

Didn't expect that guys ... you deserve some love for the amazing work done in Opera 10... it certainly is the best browser from Opera, if not the very best! We love it ...

It seems, that Op. Turbo servers are also a bit overloaded.

Firefox, eat your ears!

Daniel HendrycksDanielHendrycks # Wednesday, September 2, 2009 10:40:29 PM

Will you get another server so they are not sluggish next time like they were in this release?

Daniel HendrycksDanielHendrycks # Wednesday, September 2, 2009 10:42:47 PM

Also please give us a report on how many downloads were in week one when that time comes.

Diego Schild Smithstekonaza # Wednesday, September 2, 2009 11:56:39 PM

Yeah!

Congratulations team, a job very well done. I'm very proud of the amazing uptake on the new release, and I have no doubts that it has a fair bit to do with the (now) automatic updates. Looks like there are still a couple of minor bugs, but I notice that most of the bugs I have been having on certain websites over the beta testing have disappeared (as a matter of fact, it's now running, for the most part, much better than 9.64 ever did).

Cheers on the new spell checker as well - haven't really checked it out yet (even though I've been testing the beta a little), but I'm confident it's better than the old, outdated, GNU Aspell libraries users have had to download until now.

"It seems, that Op. Turbo servers are also a bit overloaded."

Actually, it was choking a little even in the RC.

"What I'd like to know: Where do all the users come from? (countries)"

Good idea - some geolocational statistics on downloads would be both interesting for the users and possibly useful for potential new features for the next release.

wow!!! congratulations!!!!

Anyone else has problems with fast typing in Opera's text fields? When I type fast (it's normal for me) it seems, that letters are displaying with lags. Especially comment boxes in Wordpress sites suffer from this. Even when I hold a key, the letters no not appear smoothly.
It's very irritating. The same problem I had with Opera 9, but "10" has a clean install and problem persists. I can't find reason nor solution…

Opera 10 is great! But please add a plugin to put the signature in mail automatically ABOVE the quited text - that's a tiny thing to do I hope but that would make me fall in love with Opera forever ))))
