So Steve Jobs is responding personally to user complaints now? That’s what appears to be going on, at least. According to a MacRumors reader, Steve Jobs personally responded to their email in regards to the connection issues the iPhone 3G has been widely reported to have.

The email read:

We are working on some bugs which affect around 2% of the iPhones shipped, and hope to have a software update soon.

Pretty weird, but Jobs has been known to respond to emails personally on occasion. So what does this 2% figure mean? According to estimated sales figures so far, this could translate to over 60,000 iPhone 3G users. I guess we just have to hope the new update will have put a lid on this problem for good.
