UPDATE: These tears you see are tears of joy. The uncooked rice treatment resurrected my Droid Eris from its accidental soaking. Battery is good, all system settings are intact, volume rockers operational, controls are responsive, headphone jack still good. Extra special thanks to Mahatma brand rice... best 1.50 I ever spent!

So there you have it, friends. Believe the hype: if your phone takes a dunking, take it apart and dry it out as best you can, then bury it in uncooked rice for a minimum of 24 hours. Results may vary, but in this case it was a total success.

Now if you'll excuse me, I've got some smartphonin' to do.
