Okay, that is not what it means when people say they are burning a CD or DVD.

As for the Ipod, it's fried, take it to the range and get some real entertainment out of it. Or try uncooked rice, haven't seen that suggested yet.

No but it is a great way to destroy information on them...

If you don't want to do the cheep rice option I run a test lab with low humidity drying ovens I can use to dry out your iPod. We charge $500 a day and test usually last 5 to 10 days.

Everyone says to put it in rice. This worked for my sister. However, my wife, thanks to pregnancy brain, ran her iPhone through a heavy load of towels in the washing machine. She immediately put the phone in rice and we left it in there for days. It was dead though. I took the iPhone apart but a lot of the connectors were corroded and some of the connectors where broke. Moral of the story, Tide wins in a fight against a iPhone.

So is this how much you would charge for an Ipod
$500 will replace an Ipod a couple of times over.

An Oxy/Acetylene Torch is not a real good choice...

Would be fun to watch though...

Could not bring myself to read 6 pages of this. Did he try the rice or not?

Did anyone tell him to try putting rice in some kind of sealed containing system that locks out air

I can't recall that rice has been mentioned or not. Why do you ask such a silly question?! Rice cant possibly help dry out an Ipod.

lol

Well, did it work?

Well here is the rest of the story. Looked for some rice the first night and I didn't have any in the house. Put it in my Excalibur dehydrator at 120 degrees and then bought rice the next morning. Place the iPod in a zip lock baggie of rice for a week. And this morning tried to turn it on and nothing. Thanks to everyone for their input. Oh and I bought a used iPod last Tuesday just in case.
