Each week during the competition, three netbooks (Samsung NC20) bundled each with a Nokia N96 handset, will be awarded to the three best new Widgets entered into the Competition (on Betavine) and uploaded to the Vodafone widgets developer platform.
Even if you don’t win (or want to compete), you can still upload and feature your Widget(s) on widgets.opera.com.

It's time to announce the winners of our X-Widgets Challenge. After 3 fantastic weekly prize winners, we have now been able to choose the top-3. Judging on various criteria, the jury spent a good amount of time testing the Widgets, making sure they were cross-platform compatible.
Anyway, we are proud to present the winners of our X-Widgets challenge. Thank you so much for your contributions. Spend your prize wisely.

The Opera Widgets SDK makes it even easier to create widgets of various complexity, using known and practiced Web standards, that can run across devices.
The kit is still in development, so we invite your feedback to ensure the final release fits your needs. Learn more and share your thoughts at Dev.Opera.
Opera Widgets SDK beta is supported by Opera 9.5 (and above) and you can grab it here.

Opera is an interesting organization. We got a heap of cool people working in different departments. One department in particular has many... interesting individuals. This is the home of the Desktop Team. They've been working on every kid's dream: An arcade machine (running Opera Widgets).
The arcade itself will have The Amiga 1000 a computer running with the Opera browser so they can access all their favorite Widgets.
Follow the progress in the Opera Widget Arcade blog. Besides blogging, they've also uploaded photos:

Update: We have extended the deadline for submitting widgets to midnight February 3rd.
Oh yes! The Nintendo Wii is a great device, and has been sold out at stores around the globe for a year! Guitar Hero III has commanded a lot of respect over the home entertainment market.
It's a game you will love, just like us here at Opera!
Well, we always enjoy hosting competitions. In fact we like to compete so much that we're giving away two guitars (so you can play with a friend)! All you have to do to win this grand prize is:
In the past, we've had many people developing Widgets and our Widgets repository hosts over a thousand of them (check them out for inspiration)! Think of Widgets you use on your Mobile phone or something you would like to use on your TV... Imagine a world of desktop applications made using Open Web Standards. What would you like to do today, online or offline? Well, it's up to you!
The Giving season has begun and we are even extending it to two t-shirts every week to the best Widgets for the previous week. When we reward our users, we like to go all out.
Bonus points will be awarded for Widgets that have a local aspect, e.g. Widgets that have more value for someone living in a particular city. A good example are the existing widgets offering public transportation information for Oslo.
All Widgets uploaded between December 20th 2007 and February 3rd 2008 will be judged based on the following criterias:
The winner will be announced before February 8th.
Best of luck everyone!

Planet Werks is an interactive, educational and accurate Solar System simulation created by GreyWyvern where you can take a three-dimensional Widget-sized tour through our solar system. A sophisticated control system brings you amazing views and fun facts! 
After four months in the re-making it is now available in its second version with many new features added such as:
You can now have your own planetarium on your desktop with multiple Widget sizes (including fullscreen). This is good stuff, so remember to frequently check out the original post at widgets.opera.com for updates.
Note: PlanetWerks 2 works best in the new Opera 9.5 Beta.
