How to enable Google Instant Previews in Opera

Google's new Instant Previews are a nice addition, providing a thumbnailed look at results before you click through. Opera users, however, can't use the feature by default. Fortunately, it's a trivial task to get previews working in the Big Red O -- here's how to do it.

Browse to http://www.google.com/webhp?sclient=psy;
Right-click in some blank space and choose edit site preferences
When the preferences window appears, click the network tab

Change the browser identification drop-down to read identify as Firefox
Reload the page and try a search!

The trick works just fine on Opera 10.63, but I didn't have any luck on Opera 11. If you've got the know-how to enable Instant Previews in the latest Opera build, share it in the comments!
