My sister works part time at a home restoration company. One day while talking with the plummer, he was telling her about his problem of constantly getting his phone soaked and what he has to do to dry it out. (Being a plummer and having your phone get soaked... Somehow that is just a disturbing image)

Only a few short days later, Chip was washing the dishes when she reached in the water and pulled out her cell phone! She still had no idea how it got in the water or how long it had been there but it most certainly was NOT working. She placed it in a bag of rice and it worked! It gives an amazing extra flavor to the rice too. Yummy! (No, really, I'm joking... Please don't eat the rice if you try this. )
So there you have it! A way to fix your wet cell phone. I imagine this would probably work on other small electronics as well. Great information to have but hopefully you will never need it!
Additional comment! After I scheduled this post, my mom managed to send her cell phone through the washing machine - on the HEAVY cycle! She thought her cell phone was done for but she decided to try the rice trick anyhow and it WORKED!
