Opera has released the latest update to its free desktop web browser, version 9.2. The new version adds a number of new features, but the most interesting one is what Opera calls "Speed Dial." Speed Dial is a new method of quickly browsing to a favourite web site. When the user hits the "New Tab" button, instead of the usual blank page, a three by three grid appears. The grid takes up the full screen and is laid out in the fashion of a telephone dial with numbers from 1 to 9. Each number can be populated with a different URL, selected either from existing favourites or hotlinks, or entered manually.
