I'd turn it off and take the battery out and leave it to dry for a good couple of days, take it apart too if you have the skill.

You'll probably find the phone will work for a few days then corrosion will set in and you'll start to have problems. Leaving the battery in will speed up the corrosion process, can't remember the reason think it's something to do with the current!

Good luck!

one of my customers dropped an XDA mini ii in the pool, and it still works almost perfectly, though the usb data transfer ist kaput. It's now several months later. She gave it to me because it was useless to her without usb sync. I use bluetooth sync, and it still charges, so I'm stoked!

Good to hear it works but still take the battery out, put it in a small plastic bag (freezer bag) along with some rice, silica gel, activated carbon and stuff like that to let it absorb the moisture for a few days.

More info here.

Here is how to use the 00 for phone enthusiasts.
Be away and face away from the john and drop your pants to your ankles. Then back up slowly and do your business. After you are done, get up and move away 1/2 meter. Pull your pants up and do a 180. Then check your pocket for your phone and approach. Then flush.

lol men, I can't believe you put your hands in the toilet to get the phone out, at least with a rubber glove or something, right ?? Although if it happened to me, I would be too shocked to even think about waiting to get a glove on!

The phone is fine. Apart from one thing. When i open the lense cover and go to take a picture. The button doesnt work when i hold the phone horizontally. I have to used the joy stick now.
