64 bit Opera

I downloaded Opera 9.26 and I'm giving it a test drive on my ThinkPad 
running Vista Business. So far, I like it, although I've run into one or two 
sites that give Opera trouble. It seems a bit quicker than IE7 and it looks 
a bit nicer.

When is there going to be a 64 bit version for Vista? 64 bit is the future. 
There should be a native version for x64 systems.

I believe that I have seen things on the labs or blogs that indicate
that 64-bit builds have been tested or something of that nature. You
might check there for more information.

That is for Linux. For Windows, no 64-bit builds are planned for the near  
future. It is unclear to me what practical benefits a specific 64-bits  
version would bring for Windows systems.
