Opera will unveil two new Software Development Kits (SDKs), the Opera Devices 10.15 SDK for Linux and Windows CE (WinCE) platforms as well as Opera Devices 10 for WinCE (beta) at CES this week.

Opera Devices remains in line with the company’s browsers for desktop computers and mobile phones, ensuring that the latest developments in Web technology are ready to be deployed on TVs, set-top boxes, portable media players, Internet tablets, mobile Internet devices and even car dashboards. In addition to the Opera 10.15 SDKs, Opera is introducing Opera Devices 10 for WinCE (beta), a new Web browser for devices. This feature-rich, full Web browser is based on the same user interface (UI) recently released for Opera Mobile and Opera Mini. As a part of Opera’s strategy to unify the look and feel of its browser products, Opera Devices 10 for WinCE gives customers a market-ready solution that delivers the power of Web technology to nearly any device.

“Opera Devices SDKs are built with freedom and flexibility at their core, giving customers the ability to build a full Web browser, a widget or an application platform on any connected device, including TVs, STBs, media players, mobile Internet devices, and many more,” said Christen Krogh, Chief Development Officer, Opera Software. “The TV industry’s evolution and innovation has created a demand for toolkits that can handle next generation IPTV and hybrid broadcast/broadband services on any TV screen. Opera Devices SDK for Linux is just the comprehensive client to help customers harness the power of Web technology.”
