Well, you've got to admire SE for their quick response, pity it seems it's had it though...

"Thank you for contacting the Sony Ericsson Call Centre.
With regards to your enquiry, unfortunately water damage is not covered by our warranty, and in our experience it also deems a phone irreparable. What you might consider doing is finding a local mobile phone retailer who carry out repairs on mobiles, they might look at it for you to see if it is salvageable. If you wish to refer to a Sony Ericsson service centre our postal service ACR Logistics can be reached on 01295 662101, however from experience ACR usually deem a water damaged phone irreparable and there can be a charge to have the phone returned to you."

water damaged phones are easy to repair, the only things that maybe unrepairable are the battery or lcd. all you need to do is take the phone apart compleetely, down to cct board and stick the in meths over night, in the mornining let the dry and re assemble phone, then the phone should work a ok, unless yir battery has gone, ur screen might look a little wiered (3d effect).
i have fixed tonnes of phones like this. water is a kind enemy, coke is the real bastard.

Maybe the dryer can be of GREAT help here mate

Yup, it is very rare that electronic gadgets survive when (being unintentionally) soaked in the water . . .

You can open up the phone an dry it out using the hair dryer set on warm and aboyt 30cm away from the phone. It will dry out the phones components
BUT slowly corrosion will creep in and then you may see some problems.
The LCD will definitely be dead, replace that, they are relatively cheap.
Good luck!
