The secret with getting wet electronics to work again seems to be getting them *really* dry, and not trying to use them while they might still be damp inside. I once dropped my cellphone down a (clean) toilet (Don't ask!). It seemed to haved died, but I left it somewhere warm and dry for a few weeks and since then (about 3 years ago) it's been working fine. And my last laptop did sterling service for another year after a friend of mine knocked an entire pint of cider into it, because I left it on a radiator for a week.
