While prepping the pool for closing today I had to kneel down and bend over the edge to remove a fitting. Unbeknownst to me, my iPhone 5 slipped from my shirt pocket and slipped silently below the surface and came gently to rest in 3' of water. There it lay for over 2 hours when I finally realized it was no longer in my pocket. A frantic search of the house and a call to a store I had visited earlier in the day did not turn up the missing phone. Jan asked if it might have landed in the pool as she remembered seeing be bent over the side. Sure enough, there is was.
I retrieve it, removed it from its protective case and dried it off. I then went into the shop and used the shop vac to suck out any moisture I could and then set it out in the sun for a few hours. With great trepidation I turned it on - it works perfectly.
My thanks and adoration to the folks at Apple for building a phone that even dummies like myself find hard to destroy.
