Yea...as long as you don't power it up before it dries out, there really shouldn't be any problem. Unless, of course, it gets dunked in a liquid that can cause corrosion (salt water). Even then, if you can rinse it in clean water before corrosion sets in and dry it completely, most electronics will still work. Most water damage is either caused by corrosion or by short circuit that occurs when the liquid gives the current a path it shouldn't have gone. Water is a nice conductor (not the water, actually, the minerals in the water). -=>Donald
