Apple Inc is expected to launch a High-Speed Wireless Version of iPhone in the 2nd quarter. I am very excited to get this NOW..!!! I was planning to buy the Apple iPhone 16GB this month but this news is making me to wait more and more to get the Gadget ! It is expected to produce as many as a whopping 8 Million of these 3G version devices in the 3rd quarter.

Many other analysts have said they expect Apple, which is holding a developer confrence in June, to launch an advanced iPhone around that time.

Avi Greengart, an analyst said it would make sense for Apple to bring out this High Speed 3G iPhone in June around around the time it launches an upgrade to iPhone software.

Apple has said it expects to have sold over 10 Million iPhones by the end of 2008. It also said in January that it had sold more than 4 Million iPhones since the phone was launched in June.

An unknown hacker has implanted a virus using real data into the World Bank website. Websense Security Labs discovered the new Trojan Horse virus and said that the hacker had captured names and e-mail addresses from the contact pages of the bank’s website.

“The web attacker spoofed a working individual at the World Bank and hacked an important bank report,” Venkatesh Swaminathan, regional sales manager, Websense Security Labs, said.

A further check of the entire hacking exercise by Websense revealed that the hacked report pertained to a three-year Country Partnership Strategy (CPS) report on Bulgaria’s achievements over the last eight years, the surveillance roles played by the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the European Union’s (EU) Stability and Growth Pact upon Bulgaria’s EU accession.

Now, Can i say if World Bank which will be having high security can be hacked then how easy it will be to hack our bank and money transaction accounts I am really scared after seeing this and thinking How safe is our accounts Online ???
