Opera 8.02 released ,so whats new ?!

[bosky101]

Firstly .... 8.02 Final will not include BitTorrent. 8.02 will be a maintenance release. BitTorrent will be in a later feature release (8.1, perhaps). BitTorrent was included in 8.02 Preview 1 to preview technology we're working on. It was never our intention to include BitTorrent in 8.02.

Compare Opera with Internet explorer and you'll see one undocumented advantage in that table, that is adds in favour of Opera 8.1 ... the bit torrent convergence.cheers to that .Apart from that if you ask me how one version is better from the next ,you 'll need to check out this interview with Jon S. von Tetzchner, CEO of Opera Software as i did !
