News: Tablet friendly browser coming from Opera Software

Opera Software has revealed its latest web browser which has been specifically designed for tablet PCs. The first public preview of Opera for tablets will be at this year’s Consumer Electronics Show (CES), to be held in Las Vegas from 6-9 January.

Users will be able to check their email, manage their social networks and surf the net, using the traditional multi-touch gestures such as pinch-to-zoom, which is also employed on smartphones running Opera Mobile.

“In 2011, tablets are a new must-have. Opera is creating waves with the first public preview of Opera for tablets,” said Christen Krogh, chief development officer, Opera Software. “Opera for tablets brings the same trusted Internet experience to tablets and netbook PCs as users have come to love on their mobile phones and desktops.”

Last month the Norwegian company released the latest version of its PC web browser in the form of Opera 11, offering users a sleek redesign, smart updates as well as an assortment of new features to the package.

The video preview for Opera for tablets running on the Samsung Galaxy Tab follows after the break.
