Cell Phones + Water = Trouble^(Big Time)

[andytheace]

Today I dropped my cell phone in a puddle. Currently it is drying out. Hopefully I won't have to spend money to get a new...

[UPDATE:] So far no dice on the phone. The phone is turning on, the screen is lighting up, but it isn't displaying anything...

Cat dropped her phone into Laurel Creek but after drying, it worked. It did give her some problems though and I think her battery isn't work too well anymore. Good luck with yours. Is it still under warranty?

Definitely not. It's like a 4-5 year old phone.

My new crackberry recently suffered the same fate :-(

It wont turn on either.

it would be nice if portable device manufactures finally caught on that people would like their products to be able to withstand the abuses of everyday life...
