I had a NPDE. A Near-iPod-Death-Experience. I had my iPod and phone in the pocket of my shorts. They went into the wash, and... well, they just didn't make it out in time. So I was searching for my electronics, backtracked, y'know, and I went back, thought about it, hmmmmm...mmmmmm...mmmm...mmm....m... and I made a dash to my hanging laundry! I reached into my pocket, grabbed my iPod, tried to turn it on, it flicked on, showed a freaky realistic blue screen (as if something other than the screen were lighting up), and it died. I thought I short-circuited it. You idiot, you idiot!!! I plugged in in. Nada. So weeping gently, I left it on a counter as I left for my spring break vacation, now depressed. I'm back. Pessimistically, I arrive home a week later. I don't expect much. I grab my iPod, it fails to turn on. Memories of it flash through my head to Celine Dion. I plug it in. The screen flickers on. A red battery pops up. What a shame. Did I really believe... wait, a red battery?!?!?! YES!!! HALLELUJAH! THANKYEW, APPLE GODS, THANKYEW!!! My iPod survived an entire wash and rinse cycle. I gotta give credit to the Apple engineers. They are amazing. Just wanted to share my story. Pante, my ipod outswam your iPhone. Just sayin'
My ipod near death story involves my nano. My dad got mad at my dirty room and when I was done cleaning my ipod was somehow in a watering can . It stayed on the charging screen when i took it off the charger for about 4 hours. It also was verrryy warm. It ended up somehow working again but i got an itouch
th is happened to my sisters 3d gen ipod touch she left it in her jeans pocket and it went into the wash and into the drying machine it came out and flickered on after a week of bieng left to dry more there was watr in the ipod it miraculously turned on but the backlight flickers and sometimes doesnt work and thats the only affect the wash had on it
It's good to hear you still have your device intact. Didn't you post about loosing your touch around the house like about a month ago, But then ended up finding it?
