the suggestion of tranced is definitely worth a try. i guess that would be better than drying it under the sun or using a hair blower....

remove battery asap, take out the main circuit board etc and wash with soapy water, keep water away from display sometimes they are not sealed very well, water will not harm anything and will dry completely, do not let the fizzy drink dry on anything it will leave a harmful residue, you can then help the drying process by using a hair dryer or an air line
your current screen wet patch is most likely to be the touch sensor layer and not the LCD panel, you can buy them on ebay
I guess this post is way too late lol

Good, now you have an excuse to finally get a better phone that you deserve. I can't wait for the day my Satio breaks down on me.
Actually it has twice blacked out and not able to light up unless I pull the battery and restart it. Oh what a wonderful phone.

You remebred me of my old K750i I had... and still
It was winter several years ago when I went up to fix a rain drainer... I fixed it and returned back home... toke my lunch, and 2 hours later took the after noon tea when I discovered that I don't have the phone which I always carry...
I looked for it every where but didn't find it... so I called it from home telephone... it was ringing but I could not find it or hear it
so I went back to every where I went with the home phone with me ( wireless ) so I can call it...
finally I put my foot in a big pool of rain water on the house roof.. and I felt strange vibration in the water !! I looked on it but could not find any thing...
I moved my foot till I felt the vibration stronger and stronger till I found my phone in upside down position and ringing !! I could not see the light coz the screen was underside and hidden in that pool...
I removed it and turned it off, removed tha battery for two hours with the ceiling fan pushing air to it...
I started it again and amazingly it worked very nice !! except some keys in the keyboard and the joystick had some issues...
sadly even I could not repair them as the dealer don't fix water problem even out of warranty... and other places didn't have a replace keypad board...
It's still working... but the keypad problem makes it unpracticle...

You mean like this??
REMEDY:
Wash it with
LIGHTER FLUID. It works,
100% Guaranteed!!
Tried and tested on several kinds and models of mobile phones:
* Dropped in laundry while washing clothes.
* Accidentally Dropped on pool.
* Soaked under water for almost 30 minutes (owner forgot his unit inside trouser and jumped on water)
* Washed inside washing machine (unit inside pants and forgot to check by the maid)

Dropped my old phone in water accidentally while I was in the bath tub and what I did was to take the phone apart and let it dry for 2 days straight then when I turned it on it worked just fine. I just don;t know if you can get the same result if the phone was dropped in a fizzy drink
