The final release offers several long-awaited features, like hiding the toolbar, while maintaining compatibility with existing Wiimote-compatible flash games. And because it's based on Opera, complex web pages (like my own contribution to adventure gaming on the web) work exactly as you would expect."

When this period began, a link to Virgin Unite was placed in the site notice on all Wikimedia projects. A mere twelve (12) minutes later their site was down for the count due to overwhelming traffic. As of now the site notice is no longer pointing directly to the Virgin Unite site, but instead redirects to an article on the Wikimedia Foundation wiki. One Wikipedia editor blogged this here."
