Widgets are essentially small browser windows that display information taken from the Internet on a user's desktop. The notion is similar in concept to the widget idea that Apple Computer uses in the Dashboard feature of Mac OS X.

Remember it's an experimental version, not final/stable, so expect bugs etc. Opera 9 won't be ready before June AFAIK. And do not install Test Preview over a stable release - install it in a separate folder if you want to test the new features.
