Whack it in an airing cupboard for a couple of days.

Make sure you dont try and switch it on if you want any hope of recovering it, if you try and turn it on while theres any water at all then you'll fry it for good.

You need something like a Metal Sudger to easily get inside the ipod. Your best bet is probably to leave it in the airing cupboard for a while to try and dry it out.

Also Ipods don't actually "turn off" for a long while after you hit off, tehy just standby; if it got wet while in standby its probably already deado
