My 2yr old daughter spilled water all over the my 1st gen iPad and I'm wondering if it can be salvaged. Unfortunately I didn't know about the water until after I had charged it over night. After learning of the water I put the iPad into a ziplock filled with rice for a few days. Now I take it out, and after plugging it into the charger I notice the following:
1) The bottom of the case begins getting warm quickly in one particular area
2) The display is very dark when the device is powered on, but I can unlock it and I hear the unlock sound
3) I can faintly see app icons and can navigate to other screens
4) It still syncs with iTunes
So the question is - any chance I can repair this or is it a lost cause? Any help would be appreciated - thanks!!
