Well, good news! The guys at Opera Software have decided to roll out Opera Max to even more countries and is now available in the following:

Opera 26 Brings Bookmark Sharing
With the recent Opera Developer Preview update, Norwegian browser maker has included a neat new feature, which allows you to share your bookmarks with your family or friends. However, unlike regular bookmark sharing, this feature gives you an option to share the whole folder, which you might find useful in certain situations.
However, before updating, keep in mind that there are a couple of known bugs including scrolling performances issues inside internal pages.

Disaster Releases: Opera Mini For Windows Phone
Good news! Opera has released the Beta version of Opera Mini for the Windows Phone. However, hours after the 0.9 version hit the store (which was sluggish and with the user interface from the Windows Mobile 6.5), Norwegian browser maker made some tweaks and pushed 0.9.0.1. The bad news? It won’t open for quite a few people and is more unstable than the original build.
Ignoring a pretty bad port (yes, it’s Beta although we’d call it Alpha), we are not sure about the version number either, since in the “About” page it says version 7.6.8 yet in the store this number is completely different.

Download Opera Developer Preview 25 (32 & 64 Bit)
Mac only, for now.
Now here’s something promising. It looks like Opera has started experimenting with the 64 bit builds (at least for Macs) as the latest developer preview build is finally available in both x86 and x86-64 flavors. In addition to that, the H.264 video is now also enabled on Mac (OS X 10.9 only), which should give Apple users another reason to smile.
As far as other (Windows and Linux too) changes go, there is an experimental Speed Dial, which looks quite odd (see the picture below), experimental bookmark sharing (can be enabled with the opera://flags/#bookmarks-sharing flag) and as usual, speed and security improvements.
