If the battery was totally dead when you got it wet, you might have stood a chance of reviving it by drying it out completely and THEN turning it on, but it is much more likely that current was traveling through it and when it got wet, the conductivity of the water caused a short circuit that would almost certainly damage some the components. The nature of modern electronic devices is such that the cost/effort of locating and repairing the device would outweigh the price of buying a new one.
I'm sorry that happened to you, but if it is any consolation to you, you are certainly not alone.

Take out the battey if you can. Open up all covers to the unit. Find a place away from moisture (keep it out of the bathroom or kitchen, or any place that gets damp.) Let it dry out for at least a week. Resist the tempation to try turning it on while you wait. After the week is over, try it and see if it now turns on. If it doesn't then I think you will have to go out and buy a new one. Sorry.
