I have heard that people have used pressurized air for this. This happened to me. I just let it sit outside in the shade till it dried out. At first some numbers didn't work... but over time my phone returned to normal. Same thing happened to a friend - phone never worked right again.

Just let it dry for about 2 days. Don't try to turn it on til it dries. Take the battery off and sim or memory card out. Let them all dry for a day or 2 and it will work. I dropped mine in the tub and the toilet and it worked. My nephew just dropped his phone in the lake and this worked for him too.

Your phone is toast. I've heard of them coming back, but from my experience once they go swimming it's time for a new phone. Water damage isn't covered by warranty. There is a little sticker inside your phone that changes color if it gets wet. So, you won't get away with sending it back as broken, the provider will know it got wet.

Take it out of it's pouch (if used), take battery cover off, take battery out, and lay it on a towel or newpaper and place in your hot water cupboard overnight - I did this also - and my phone is as good as new :)
