two weeks ago (see Killarney post in the photos section) it spent AN ENTIRE NIGHT at the bottom of the lake before i fished i out, dried it, and in 5 days it was like nothing happened.
so.. dont be afraid to get stuff wet!
With cell phones, be a little afraid. I've lost two cells to water. Both worked fine for about a month afterwards and then failed. Things just went haywire with the electronics. The service folks told me it was due to water contamination. The water gets in and slowly compromises the electronics. It doesn't necessarily happen over night, but it may very soon down the road. It shortens their life.
Just a word of warning from a weary cell user.
