Dad fell in the lake and fried the Nokia phone he got a few weeks ago from Cingular. Does anyone have one they'd like to sell cheap? He doesn't know what a newsgroup is so I'm posting this for him, but he will be happy to hear from you. Otherwise, feel free to send me an email and I'll pass it on to him. He is: John W.

sometimes, a radio (or other device) that's been immersed in water can be restored. Since it was a lake (fresh water), the only real problem is water trapped on the circuit boards, mostly under the keypad membrane. I'd suggest removing the battery (probably dead by now anyway), opening the case, laying out everything (you've got nothing to lose, do you?), wipe away any moisture you find, and let it dry for a day or two. Then put it back together and see if it works.... Marvin, in Atlanta
