The UI is nice, but they keep referring to it as their "product" in the marketing material, so I'm not sure if it will become pay software at 1.0. Perhaps they'll sell the services around it, but they don't say anything, so it's hard to do anything but guess.
I am wondering, how did these guys got that domain name. I think such domains should be used for what they are supposed to - Vivaldi, and not some random beta browser (although it might be pretty good!). Too much hype put in the wrong place these days :(
You can buy domain names for a hefty price tag, but it is still doable for someone with some money.
Same thing for newton.com
Uninstalled.
