That's the key, if you don't resist the urge to keep putting the battery in every so often to see if it works yet you might as well leave the thing in the toilet.

How unfortunate man, these things are rare but you need to be a bit more careful next time you do things like that.

Different to what happened to my cousin then. He didn't even pick up the phone immediately, he said he looked at it and contemplated just flushing it (he had the runs)

Get a Motorola Defy (Android). It's waterproof. Mine has been in the pool to test. Plus it's a much better phone than a BB Torch.
