Hi all,
Unfortunately I got caught in a storm, and my ipod touch got wet. I didn't realize it, so I tried to charge it for a while (less than an hour or so), as soon as I realized there was water under the screen I switched it off and put it into a rice bag. Now it's almost four days, and there's still water under the screen.
The situation is the following:
1) Warranty expired
2) No red/pink coloration into the dock connector or jack plug
3) The ipod turns on and could charge, but shows the itunes icon and does not move from there
4) I can switch it off just by holding both the hold and power button. If I just hold the power, in the following screen I will be unable to scroll the cursor to switch it off.
5) If I plug it into itunes, it doesn't let me in because it says I need to put in the password (but doesn't show the relative screen on the Ipod).

Any possible advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

There is hope based on your 5th point You just try placing the iPod in recovery mode (bypasses password) and restoring via iTunes.
