When Nature Calls, Answer Carefully....

Last night I dropped my phone.

In the toilet.

Rather than throw in the towel and pay for a new one (which costs roughly $1 billion), I plan to dry it out, lysol the piss out of it (pun intended) and *hopefully* be able to squeeze a few more months of usage out of my drowned phone. Hey, it's disgusting but I've only had the thing since Christmas!

*Update: Its officially dead. RIP Moto Razr.*

Don't feel bad. I have done the exact same thing - TWICE, yes twice.

Ava had a 'throw everything in the toilet stage' for awhile. My cell phone was a victim. There was no saving it:(

Now you can get your Treo :)

They have an automatic 1 year warranty... this doesn't include water damage. but the only way they test water damage is this color coded chip on the back (which may or may not actually show the water damage, it's not 100%)- now, my first phone died from a beer getting spilled on it, and they gave me a free new one-- granted I wore something low cut and flirted with the sales rep.... but hey, why not?!?

my razr died a painful death in the bathtub. try ebay if you don't have phone insurance. i got a replacement motorola l6 - not as great but... - for $100.

I put mine through the washer and it reincarnated 4 days later after I thought, 'what the hell?' and turned it on. Haven't had a problem since. Saved the $1 billion!

My last supervisor did the same thing you did and hers still worked.
