I've pushed this to my Galaxy Nexus, but my Asus Transformer TF101 (Tegra2-based) running latest 4.2.2 from source is listed as not compatible.

Anyone from the Opera team able to provide a reason for this?

Edit: What ewams said. As stated in the article, Opera has restricted tablet-support so far.

From the article: "Note that we don't have an Opera 14 build ready for tablets yet: we're still working on various tablet-specific UI optimizations, and this will be released later on."

Have you tried Firefox? I have an Acer tablet with the same Tegra, and I found the interface and responsiveness much better.

I've found Firefox quickly turning too slow for my taste, especially on my tablet.

This usually only became a problem after a while, after it accrued a bit of history, and local user-data which needs to get searched, cached, updated etc.

To be fair, I've had that problem with lots of browsers, including Chrome.

I've had this problem with every browser I've tried on both the tablet and the phone. Opera pre-chrome provides the only halfway decent and useable solution.

After reading all the comments on here, I'm pretty sure I won't "upgrade" to their Chrome version anytime soon. It's a shame.
