-wave- Mine is worse.
I've put my phone through the wash (AND DRY!) cycle. Several times. >.>

I just kinda set it out and prayed for the best. After forgetting it on the windowsill for about a week, I turned it on. And it actually worked. Some of the keys on the keypad weren't so keen on functioning, but overall.. it worked!
Rice or clean cat-litter, I've heard, will help dry it out. =) Hope yours ends up working!
