Opera 9.5 sparks 4.7 million downloads

While everyone's going crazy about Firefox 3, Opera Software's keeping low but that's not to say that they don't have reason to celebrate. In the five days following its launch of Opera 9.5, the browser achieved 4.7 million downloads. Well, it's not as much as Firefox, but I'd like to give them some credit.

"In addition to our primary focus on speed, security and standards compliance, we built Opera 9.5 with the typical user in mind. This means that we understand that people today cannot afford to be disconnected and that the Link between the computer and mobile phone is key to meeting future demands for the Web," says Jon von Tetzchner, CEO, Opera Software.

"Opera 9.5 has set a new standard for Opera Software. With almost five million downloads in five days, we are proud that our product will now be part of the daily lives of so many individuals."
