I hope this can give you an idea:
" Sandbox is a measure taken by Google to avoid spam websites abusing search engine optimisation techniques to reach the top of the index, getting barred by Google, and then repeating the process using a different domain."

IMO, sandboxed sites are indexed but have a hard time ranking on competitive keywords...

It's never easy for newcomers to enter a market and there are barriers of different kinds. For newcomers to the world of search engines, the barrier is called a sandbox – your site stays there until it gets mature enough to be allowed to the Top Positions club. Although there is no direct confirmation of the existence of a sandbox, Google employees have implied it and SEO experts have seen in practice that new sites, no matter how well optimized, don't rank high on Google, while on MSN and Yahoo they catch quickly. For Google, the jailing in the sandbox for new sites with new domains is on average 6 months, although it can vary from less than a month to over 8 months.
While it might be considered unfair to stop new sites by artificial means like keeping them at the bottom of search results, there is a fair amount of reasoning why search engines, and above all Google, have resorted to such measures. With blackhat practices like bulk buying of links, creation of duplicate content or simply keyword stuffing to get to the coveted top, it is no surprise that Google chose to penalize new sites, which overnight get tons of backlinks, or which are used as a source of backlinks to support an older site (possibly owned by the same company). Needless to say, when such fake sites are indexed and admitted to top positions, this deteriorates search results, so Google had to take measures for ensuring that such practices will not be tolerated. The sandbox effect works like a probation period for new sites and by making the practice of farming fake sites a long-term, rather than a short-term payoff for site owners, it is supposed to decrease its use.

It can happen to any new website. If your website gets entangled into sandbox, then you will have to wait for a period of around 6-8 months

Yeah, that's the right one, but PR has no relation to sandbox.

I have not experienced the sandbox effect in months, even for very new domain names. AS long as you create good content and find differnt sources to get links from and a bit of traffic sent to the site, the rest happens as it should.

Newly added site google will keep pending to promote. Keep watching some time at least 3 months. Then according to the quality of site and its back links and some other factor it will give a position. The keeping is called sand box
