my Nokia N81

just a not very short update...

yesterday was a bad day for me and my beloved Nokia N81....

something bad happened to him (N81)... something really bad... !! never in my life, such a thing happened to my handphone...

how BAD ??

"he" fell into a toilet bowl full of water (clean water of cos !!) in the washroom at my office...

how it happened ??

i was rushing out to the washroom right before lunch time.... normally, i wouldnt bring my it into the cubicles... but, since i wanted to go for lunch after my wee wee "toilet session", i brought along my phone, purse and office tag...

once i was inside the cubicle facing the toilet bowl, i was holding my phone and purse in one hand... then, i thought i left my tag in the office and when i wanted to see what's in my hand... then i accidentally dropped the phone right into the toilet bowl !!! it happened in just a split of second....

oh my GOD.... i was so damn shocked and i immediately grab it with my hand (luckily i still havent do my business yet).... and took out the phone from the cover, and wipe it with the toilet paper i had as fast as i can...

the phone cover was all wet and i immediately switched it OFF and wiped it again... i tried to switched it ON after a while... and it seems to be alright for a short moment before the screen went "sot"... brighter and dimmer and brighter !!! and that's the moment i decided to switched it OFF again and let it dried off thoroughly... sigh... :(

after lunch, i went back to office and wiped it again with more tissues... mainly those small holes for battery charging, cable port, handsfree port and memory card slot...

some friends advised me not to switch it on for at least a day or two... but i just couldnt wait any longer to know it's destiny... after dinner, i went back home and used a hairdryer to blow it dry...

and....

thank GOD, it's back to life !!!

i was really so lucky cos he's only 6 months old... so young only, need to die meh... hehee... or else, i will need to use public phone ler !!

luckily, i protected it with a cotton phone cover, or else... "DIE HARD" !!

that's my handsome N81... with it's life saver....

Lesson of the day: Do NOT bring your handphone to the toilet even for a small business or get yourself a waterproof phone cover !! You wouldnt know what will happen next.

anyway, i've got this email from a friend recently and i dont know how true it is... my phone was not that wet, so i didnt try it... maybe you will need it one day ?? check it out....
