well long story cut short blackberry flew down the toilet and i have dried it out fully havnt put battery back in until now its been 3 days and i am so gutted its not even turning on or having the red light! i have currently just become unemployed due to personal reasons and am currently looking for a job and in the mean time i dont know what to do about my phone.

do i cash it in as repairs,throw it in the bin or can it be fixed i cant afford to buy a new one atm, so gutted.

any help would be much appreciated 

thankyou morgannn xxxx

May be dead but maybe not be fully dried out either. You should ideally leave it in a sealed bag of uncooked rice in the airing cupboard for at least a week. If still no good your best bet would be a local repair shop which are usually cheaper than the likes of CPW etc...

After a week it should give you some idea if it's ever gonna work again....
