Yahoo Launches its own browser for iOS



Axis, Yahoo's new standalone Web browser for iOS (and extension for desktop versions of Google Chrome, Firefox, and Safari), embodies some really neat ideas about surfing the Web, especially on the touch screen. The app keeps the bloat to a minimum, and offers tools that make searching and browsing a snap. Unfortunately, like every third-party browser, Axis suffers from Apple's restrictions in that it can't be set as the default browser.

3D Gaming Monitors



I prefer to not play games in 3D. Aside from the stress it puts on my eyes, there's something about the stereo effect where it never becomes completely seamless. It never melts into the background and, for me at least, is constantly drawing my attention away from the actual game.
However, I understand that there are those who appreciate 3D much more than I do, and if I were going to invest in a 3D monitor, the following five are the ones I'd choose from. Just to be clear, these are the best monitors for 3D gaming, not the best overall monitors that happen to have a 3D component.

Firefox gets a 'reset' button




Mozilla wants to cut down on the number of people who complain about Firefox not working properly, and they're giving you a one-click way to do it.
A new feature called Reset Firefox gives you the ability to "reset" the browser while keeping your personal data. Currently available in Firefox 13 beta for Windows, Mac, and Linux, the feature works by migrating your bookmarks, passwords, cookies, and form data to a new default profile. Then it kills off the old one, and you've got a clean Firefox installation without having to troubleshoot anything.
It does not save add-ons, Sync setttings, open tabs, or tab groups, and it's not clear at this point if those are planned for Reset Firefox or if saving them would prevent it from working properly.

HTC's Droid Incredible 4G LTE


NEW ORLEANS--Ladies and gentleman, behold the HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE, the Android4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich smartphone rumored to step into the light at CTIA 2012. Well, here it is.
Calling it a variant of the HTC One X or One S would be a simple way to describe the Incredible 4G LTE, but not the most accurate. It really does retain a lot of the Droid Incredible character in look and feel, down to the contoured back (not quite as topographical as in previous versions) and the bright red accents that signal out the Incredible's design legacy.

The phone also felt good in the hand, thanks to the ridged, rubberized backing, though it isn't the slimmest thing on any side of the Mississippi. This doesn't bother me, personally.
On to the screen! It isn't huge, like the 4.7-inch One X, and it's even a little smaller than the One S at 4.3 inches. Instead, it hews close to the Droid Incredible 2. The Super LCD qHD display looks good on a 4-inch canvas, though it won't be the clearest, brightest, or more highly defines screen there ever is or was. Based on the brief time I spent with it, though, it looked nice.
So now that you know how it looks and feels in real life, how about the rest? It runs Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich as its OS, and has HTC Sense 4.0 on top. It also has a 8-megapixel camera, a dual-core Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 processor, and a 1,7000mAH battery, which isn't bad, but also can't compare to Motorola's Droid Razr Maxx in terms of battery life (that one has a 3300mAh battery) or event the Samsung Galaxy S III with its 2,100mAH battery. So you're looking at an average battery life of perhaps a day, less if you use data heavily.
Interestingly, the Incredible 4G LTE (which, needless to say, runs on Verizon's LTE data network,) includes a removable battery and microSD card slot capable of holding up to 32GB of external storage. This runs counter to the One X and One S, which feature unibody designs with no expandable memory.
There's no pricing or availability yet, but rumors suggest a $300 price tag. Of course, we just won't know until we compare the Incredible 4G LTE side by side with any other phone, say the One X or One S, but it could be a tight race that I think will come down to the camera performance and the screen quality.
