 Why is the Opera browser not included in Debian?
For the very simple reason that Opera is not open source software.
(I do not know why it's not in non-free, but such cases are usually because
the license doesn't allow redistribution.)

I gues it is, at least in testing.

$cat /etc/apt/sources.list

deb http://security.debian.org/ testing/updates main contrib
deb-src http://security.debian.org/ testing/updates main contrib


deb ftp://ftp.is.debian.org/debian/ testing main contrib non-free
deb-src ftp://ftp.is.debian.org/debian/ testing main contrib non-free

#skype rep.
#deb http://download.skype.com/linux/repos/debian stable non-free

$apt-cache search opera
opera - The Opera Web Browser

best regards
Jakub
