BlackBerry Down!

06-15-2009, 09:07 AM

Was on the porch enjoying a cigar with Alina and the dogs when the pups hit the coffee table spilled Alina's water which some hit my keyboard. Not much really. Didn't think it was a big deal. Wiped if off, took out the battery and set the phone in front of a fan. Well that was Friday night and the keyboard still does not work. Looks like I'm S.O.L.

Ouch! Sadly, I've seen them survive a dunk in the spa and survive!

That's what I found surprising. It really didn't get soaked at all. I bet it has gotten wetter in the rain than what happened.

Thankfully I have insurance on it but $50 still sucks!

Sorry about that Al, super bummer!

Emjaysmash · 06-15-2009, 09:23 AM

Sorry to hear it Al! I unfortunately dropped my phone in the toilet last night... yeah it broke too.

Can you pick up voicemails from another phone?

If so ... you have one (and probably more) waiting.

Got it Vin. Thanks. You will have to fill me in more when I get a new phone.

Washed mine. It took a week of drying on the window sill in the sun before it would work again. By then I had a new one.

Maybe I should have put in the dryer too

06-15-2009, 10:16 AM

Dryer eh?

colimo · 06-15-2009, 10:25 AM

Me too.

Monday night as my daughter was getting ready for her graduation practice - she had her purse with her Palm Treo, 2 month old Nikon camera and her iPod Touch sitting next to a sink with water in it.

Don't even have to guess what happens next - yep - into the dunk they go. Do the math on that and see if'n I'm happy -
