Apple Unveils 3G iPhone

Today, June 9th 2008, Apple is suppose to raise the curtains over much awaited 3G version of iPhone in its Worldwide Developers Conference 2008 (WWDC) at San Francisco. As I was searching for updates on this, I found this interesting blog, where the author is blogging live from the WWDC. He just confirmed the announcement that the price for 8GB iPhone is $199 and for 16GB it is $299!. It has a build in GPS, as expected. Wow..I need to refresh his page every minute now as it is becoming more and more exciting....

In between we had rains on several occasions. On one such rainy day, looking out of my same old big window, I was sure that I am going to see a rainbow that day.

But I was wondering, if I could ever see a complete rainbow as opposed to just a part of it, like an arc, which I have always seen. Minutes passed, then wow!, to my surprise it was a complete rainbow that to a double one emerging on the sky. Though I couldn't photograph from end to end because of the place where I was standing, I still I managed to get some decent shots of it...
