What’s the deal with the iPhone 3G? I mean, I updated it and I’m still dropping calls like U.S. Olympic batons!

MacRumors claims to have an update to the ongoing iPhone 3G reception issues. The issues are said to affect about 2% to 3% of all iPhone 3G users. The problem manifests itself when there are a large number of 3G users on the same tower or when switching between 2 and 3G networks.

A poster on the MacRumors forums e-mailed Steve’s public e-mail address about the issue. Find out what Steve had to say after the break.
