Apple has finally acknowledged the iPhone 3G reception issues being reported by consumers. CNET News reporter Tom Krazit talkes about what the company said, and whether the problems have been fixed.

Privacy is a big concern for many Web surfers, and it looks like Microsoft wants to capitalize on that interest by adding a safe-browsing mode to the next version of Internet Explorer.

Plus, mark your calendars, Sims fans. February 20, 2009, is the day The Sims 3 will debut.
