I am also very interested in this feature. I have pretty bad eyesight, and even my Samsung 193p's native 1280x1024 resolution makes if very hard to read many webpages. I currently use Firefox and set the default text size to something big like 16 font or something. I works great for sites like Google, but for many websites with a lot of HTML tables (like AT, and just about every messageboard), I have to manually press CTRL + PLUS (the + button) to increase the size, as it seems the default size will not automatically apply to these things inside table rows/table datas. Anyone have more insight into this, that I might not have to do this manually every time?

It's the fault of the websites you're visiting.

In HTML, you can code fonts with fixed sizes or relative sizes. Fixed sizes are ideal for maintaining a specific layout and make things easier for the page designer, so they're used fairly often. The problem is that fixed sizes cannot be scaled for users with special needs. Relative sizes are preferred and will scale to the user's preference.

so wait......the full version is free for one day? Or AD-free for one day? I doubt Opera would trick us with semantics (been using them for going on 2 yrs now), but it would be nice to get clarification.......or am i just paranoid?

They did this sometime back, and don't remember any strings. I think it was when 8.0 was released from Beta.

Email sent, just waiting for the autoresponder with the key

I'm too lazy to look but are there provisions against people doing this for commercial use? As in I develop web applications and it would be nice to have this for testing pages those for my company. That against any rules?

On the birthday website you can download an mp3, chat with the CEO and do other Opera-related stuff. I'm downloading the podcast at the moment.

Only the ad-free version costs. And it's free 24 hours starting from now, so I think it fits your diurnal rhythm in some way ;)

Because Opera is L33t ;) j/k

Opera is much faster than Firefox, and you can add and disable any funtionality with Opera on demand.
