Hairdryer.

I haven't dunked my phone, but one of my friends has. She disassembled it and left it on the radiator to dry off over night. I think it worked.

If you have a heavy duty phone, stick it in the Dryer

That's worked well for me in the past, when I accidently wash my phone as well as my laundry.

Begs the question, are iPhones waterproof/resistance? Or did they fix that little battery hard wired in and $75 to fix?

If I had $700 to flush down the toilet I'd test it myself.

Nope; in fact, they seem even more sensitive than normal phones.

This was a couple weeks ago: pretty in-depth analysis of wetting & how the "water sensor" works -- you'd think Apple could spend their freakin' creativity on something less gay

I've heard of more rediculous studies. One organization recently secured a government grant to test the idea that smoking at a young age does infact have an impact on your lungs/cancer risk etc. when you're older.

I'm thinking, duh?
