My niece has gone thru four phones this last year. Not Pre's. Three of them fell in the toliet. One in a lake from what I remember. The last one was in a porta potty. She talked some guy into putting on rubber gloves and fishing for it. He then asked her if he found it would she actually want to use it again. She opted to file a claim.

My ex's father actually dropped his Treo in the toilet one time. I asked him how the freak that happened, and he gave a pretty reasonable answer...
The phone was in his shirt pocket. He bent over and PLOP. Luckily, his Treo made it.

Oh man, my buddy dropped his iphone into a cup of ice cold water that he just poured as he pulled his phone out of his pocket... he saw bubbles coming out of the phone. he immediately put the phone in with a few silica packs and left it for 24 hours... Phone ended up working just fine afterwards. Good luck.

I did that....pre wouldn't turn on for 5 days, then finally turned on but the touch screen was dead. Thankfully, it was only 28 days old at that point and I went to a non-repair store and they did an immediate free swap out for a new one! Yay sprint!!
