A reader over at AppleInsider just got another one of Steve Jobs' brief and to the point emails. This time, it's in regards to a crash bug that affects third-party apps on start up.

The email reads as follows:

"This is a known iPhone bug that is being fixed in the next software update in September."

In his typical brief form, Jobs is giving us a time to expect this bug fix. Specifically, many users are reporting the iPhone 2.0's firmware sudden failure to load third-party apps. The apps will often load briefly then crash back to the home screen.

And while it's good to know a fix is on the way, many users are still not satisfied with the 3G situation. Are these merely temporary fixes until the real thing comes along? I guess we'll have to wait until September to find out.
