Don't switch it on till its totally dry and that could really help.

Dropped mine into a pint of beer once and I just dried it out for a few days and then tried it and it was fine

mine went in a cuppa 15 months ago. it didn't work for about 3 days, then started working again. the vibrating alert thing does not stop once it starts. i have to turn the phone off to reset it. every now and then it makes 3 loud popping sounds, then a fizzle and the screen goes blank.... i need a new one

my friend's phone got sucked by her 10 month old yesterday and it didn't work until this afternoon.

Put it in the airing cupboard for a few days - works with radios that fall in the bath!

Keep going with the hairdryer-saved mine after a trip down the loo
