i work on a yacht and am currently in formentera, spain. while i was varnishing the caprail my w800 climbed outta my pocket and went for a swim. i dove in after it and retreived it. i then took it apart and soaked it in fresh water. it's been drying in front of the AC for the past few days but seems to be dead. the screen came on showing a white background, but looked streaky.
i was able to salvage my old RAZR that fell in the water, but at that time i had compressed air, contact cleaner and proper tools. seems the w800i is now dead.
anybody know a good place in spain (formentera, ibiza or mallorca) to get a replacement? TIA | |
