Latest word from Opera is they had some last minute bugs they were working on, so the launch date for the beta is not tell Thursday (July 17th) instead of Tuesday.

As you can imagine, we encountered a few bugs last week that we needed to fix before we launch. Our engineering team worked through the weekend to fix the bugs. Even though our release is a beta, we'd rather spend the extra time to fix them, thus giving you a better experience. The fixes are almost complete now, but we need two more days to run the build through our quality assurance testing. The new launch date is now set for the 17th.
We're disappointed to delay, but fixing these bugs will improve the experience with our beta and let you fully test the browser.
