May your iPod rest in peace in the big computer chip in the sky.

Theirs no way that your IPod could survive that. This is why I don't bring my Sansa in the bathroom. Too much of a risk with all the water stuff in their.

May the Ipod Nano or shuffle or regular Ipod, rest in Pieces.

well, i think it might still function to some extent because there was a bunch of clicking that i heard coming from it, it does that when i reset it to. Damn, my parents are gonna kill me if its totally busted

Yeah, sounds like you need a replacement. May I suggest a Zune?

Why was the water yellow?

kinggryman...sorry to say this, but I'm guessing the water was yellow because it was urine. And I'm sorry to say, but your I-pod is dead. The circut board couldn't have survived that much water... If it was under warranty, call up I-pod and try to get a replacement...

Best of luck

well, supposedly the, um (yellow stuff) is a better conductant than just water, so (sniff) possibly, the poor ipod never had a chance and got fried.

You could go to an Apple store and not tell them about the toilet, but you could say it's not working, but if you're honest like me, you'd just go over to the closest apple store, tell them the truth and hopefully you had a warrenty on it. Mine broke, but they fixed it.

^^ A week in a half is fine. As long as it isn't a month between posts.

I feel bad for you man. I am really careful with mine, so hopefully you will learn from your mistake!
