My situation so far: My ipod touch went through a whole cycle in the washing machine after being left in my jean pocket. My first instinct was to turn it on, and when I did, it showed the apple logo (as it always does when it starts up) which flickered off for a second on occasion, but stayed consistently the same for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes I turned it off. It turned back on after 5 minutes, so I turned it off again and it stayed off. I left it out on a paper towel to dry over-night. It wasn't until the next morning when I looked at different forums for advice, where I discovered that I should not have tried to turn the iPod on and that putting it in uncooked rice is extremely helpful. There were no forums that told me what I could do now that I had already turned it on (which is apparently fatal if it hasn't had time to dry out). It is currently turned of and submerged in a bowl of dried rice. What are the chances of its survival? What else can I/should I do?
