In can't select any country in http://www.epson.com, anyone knows why?
Opera 9.24.

I'm guessing bad browser sniffing.

Confirmed.
Do any of you file a bug report?

As Gandalf noted, the Epson site works fine when Opera is set to "Mask as
Internet Explorer" or "Mask as Firefox".  Hence, it's a site problem, not
with Opera.  No bug report is necessary, unless someone wishes to contact
the webmaster at epson.com informing them of their problem.

As far as I know Opera also has a team dedicated to site problems, so when it's an important site (which this seems to be) I think a bug report would be in order.

However, if you wish to use Opera's Help> Report a site problem... then
perhaps Opera can tweak their browser.js file to enforce user-agent masking
on Epson's site.

Ah yes, there's also that vague menu item. I've never been sure what Opera does with that, and what the relation to the bug system is. I still think filing a bug report wouldn't hurt though.
