Explosion at Foxconn iPad Factory Kills 2 in China

There was an explosion today at the Foxconn plant that makes the iPad 2. Two people were killed and sixteen injured. The article says there will be no "disruption" in Apple's supply chain and went on to mention the recent suicides as well. Nice to see they have their priorities in order.

A local news department neat Chengdu has reported 2 deaths and 16 injuries from the blast, which occurred around 7 p.m. Friday night. Local media identified the plant as one of the iPad manufacturing sites, though there's no word on if today's explosion could disrupt Apple's supply chain.
