Same Problem

-   Day1:My son's iTouch slipped into sink while water was running...and it got soaked. It was on at the time, and shut off. We dried off immediately, and put in bowl of rice for overnight.
Day2: Took out of rice, No luck. Put it on the furnace to get some heat for the entire day. Still not no luck. Plugged it in at 11p for first time, and finally some signs of life..screen flickered and went out. iTunes recognized, then lost its connection. Going to leave plugged into computer overnight.
Day3: TBD-   pjsedlak

I might have the solution for this but I'm not quite sure. It worked well for me. My iTouch got dropped in water and I took it out right away. You could tell there was water damage from the way the screen lit up. mine stayed on and I didn't know quite what to do but I worked for a day on trying to get all the water out of it and then I plugged it in for a while.

At first though, it wouldn't charge and this went on for a while but since I continually plugged it in, I was able to get it back charging and now it works as well as before. So I say, try plugging it in for a few hours and unplugging it and letting the power drain and plugging it in a again for about a week and if it still doesn't work I don't know what to tell you.
