No, I have not tried the voice thingee. I wondered if that might be cool to use for a "books on tape" kind of thing. ie: Find a good ebook (loads free til August 4, 2006) and let this thing read it to you.... seems like a cool idea but if the voice is grating that would be a bummer.

I do plan to keep playing with opera some, but I already miss firefox. How much of that is functionality vs familiarity I'm not sure.... but my hunch is my quickly missing firefox is almost all familiarity/comfort and that functionality is about the same, at least for the "base models". IMHO some of the extensions for firefox are just full on righteous and only getting better. (aardvark, edit css and web developer extensions immediately come to mind) Opera does have the widgets notion, but a first glance at those was a little underwhelming.

Who knows & who cares -- it's all fun and games when you're a geek like me.
