Re: iTouch Fail...

Put it in a bag of rice. That soaks up the water or something.
And if you think that's a joke, it's not. Look it up.

Re: iTouch Fail...

dry it in rice for a few days dont touch it or turn it on.  If it was off when it was in the water it might live but if it was on it could be broken  sad

Ok thanks. I've been looking on youtube, and found a few saying this stuff.  big_smile
Thanks. I'll try it.
But I hope it still works... even though I tried turning it on...
Oh well.  big_smile  I hope it still works. :S
I might have to replace his... or he might not care, because he has an iPhone4.  tongue
I'm getting an itouch OS5 maybe anyway.  big_smile

If the water got inside the screen, it's gone forever.

Re: iTouch Fail...

This teacher in my old school left his Mac beside him, and put a glass of water ON IT.  He fell asleep and knocked it over.  It wouldn't work.  AT ALL.

I know right?!  He left a mug of coffee on the school laptop.  Guess what happened next?  It spilt.  I yelled "SIR!!!!  COFFEE ON THE LAPTOP!!!  IT'S GONNA DIE!!!"

Really, I did.
