What is “Sandbox”?

Sandbox is an iPhone/iPad app that lets kids play with sand in various ways. In free-mode, users can play around in six types of sandboxes such as a normal sandbox, beach, Japanese garden, etc. Also, the app has five mini-games, for example “Treasure Hunting” and “Bury-A-Mole”. Users can save their sand-works in their iPhone as photos, and also post them in the gallery to share them with other users from all over the world! Enjoy tapping sand and water flowing super-realistically, that only Phyzios’s original physics simulation technology can make come true.

Foxconn is planning a major expansion of their iPhone plant

Foxconn, a major Apple manufacturing partner, are planning a huge expansion of their operations in 2012. The expansion is set to dramatically increase production of iPhones and iPads to meet the never-ending demand.

Foxconn is reportedly working with the Chinese city of Zhengzhou to double the size of its workforce at the facility there, where another 10,000 employees will be hired. This is the same number of employees hired in 2011 alone.

The expansion is valued at $1.1 billion and would make the Foxconn factory the largest smartphone production facility in the world. Foxconn’s Zhengzhou plant currently pumps out close to 200,000 iPhones each and everyday. Doubling their workforce and having a larger factory is only going to increase that, by, well, a lot.
