New Opera 11 Snapshot build 1085 released
"Search suggestions
By Huib Kleinhout. Monday, 15. November 2010, 12:22:03
Today's snapshot implements support for a frequently requested feature: Google search predictions. When you search using the search field or from the address field with the 'g' search keyword, the predicted search queries will appear in the drop down below."

Very small changelog
Maybe some changes not listed when i ran the Peacekeeper benchmark I got a new high score.

Opera now has a Portable option built into the installer, everything is contained inside the install folder no entries are written to the registry so just delete the folder to uninstal plus it makes it very easy to backup or take with you on a USB stick.
Opera Desktop Team - Search suggestions
When you run the installer click on Options.
Change the Install path to another folder & change All users to External drive.

If you install the snapshot you will probably find that the default search engine is not set to Google, to change default search engine open the drop down list in the Speedial search bar & choose manage search engines. Select your choice & then edit and details & you will find options for setting it as default & speedial search engines.
When you see the list of search engines you will notice a letter next to each one
g is Google, b is Bing etc.
Typing b in the Address field followed by a space & then the search term will search in Bing.
