[maemo-developers] N900: water damage

Hi,

A little bit of water was slipping from my bottle and hit my n900. First 
the screen was falling away sometimes. Then I saw a little water on the 
keybd when I moved the keybd out and in. I powered the phone off and 
waited for a few hours. When I didn't see any water anymore, I powered 
it on, it looks to behave normal again, until I tried to charge it, 
which didn't work. Then I noticed that I couldn't turn it off normally, 
so I removed the battery to turn it off. Since then I can't boot my 
n900. Only a white nokia screen flashes on, and disappears after 20 sec 
or so. When I charge it, the orange light stays on constantly, that 
doesn't look normal too. I did use the power kernel.

Anything I can do to safe my device?

Thanks in advance,
Dirk
