Opera would have saved the Lindbergh baby

An exec from Opera tosses some sour grapes regarding Amazon’s announcement today about their Silk browser:
A senior executive at Opera Software said he was “very flattered” that Amazon launched its Silk browser on Wednesday, but that Opera had already refined the concept of cloud browsing years earlier.
Seriously?
Opera is the BeOS of the browser world. Barely anyone uses it, but the few people who do use it are constantly clogging up user forums and comment threads going on about how amazingly awesome it is, how much more advanced it is than anything else out there, how it will make sandwiches for you (and tasty ones, too!), and on, and on, and on.
Great, so you refined the concept of cloud browsing five years ago. How’s that working out for you and your 1.65% market share?
