I tried that. The first thing I did was take the nokia out of the aluminum case, removed the stylus from its silo (there was moisture there), removed the battery (which amazingly was dry as a bone), removed the memory card (there was moisture there), and did not attempt to turn it on for four days. I then applied a blow drier to it at a very light setting, all over for about 10 mins., to get any residual moisture out. And when I put the battery back in and hooked it up to the charger, there was nothing. No flicker, no last gasping breath, no rising smoke, nothing. Just a paperweight. I feel confident the battery is fine, b/c it was dry inside its compartment, but I don't know what damage the circuitry sustained. Someone who had the patience to take it completely apart might have better luck. Me? I was really lookin for an excuse to upgrade to the 800. :-)
