We’ve heard the phrase ‘reinventing the web’ too many times already, so we’re wary of Opera’s claims, but this made us curious anyhow. The browser maker has just unveiled Opera 10 in beta, so it could be taking the wraps off the product and taking it public rather quickly. Or it could be something entirely different.

Opera users don’t seem to know what’s going on either.

We’ve asked the company for clarity, although we don’t expect a clarifying response at all. We’ll just have to wait until June 16th; everyone can stop doing whatever it is they are doing on the current Web for now until Opera is ready with the new version. :)

In the meantime, anyone care to venture a guess?

And no, it’s likely not the Internet on a stick.
