Depends on the bugs. Data corruption/loss must not be present, always  
failsafe.

Phone calls must always be possible, no call should ever be dropped  
due to a bug.

Text messages should not be sent due to a bug (again, failsafe), I've  
had this in a Windows Mobile phone where it repeatedly sent out the  
same message due to a bug.

Cosmetic and minor bugs can exist in the product. No severity 1  
(highest), 2, or 3 bugs.
