That is sooooo sad. 16gb 3G dead as a door nail.
I have a 16gb 3g here that someone sent that was water damaged. It sucks that it is a black one instead of white
, but still sad to see it die.
The LCD connector is melted, the battery terminal is scorched black on the 3rd pin, and the flex cable is corroded. Just for added insult the sensors are all triggered pink and the motherboard has corrosion in the radio.
R.I.P. to the 16gb 3g.... Can't even save the LCD on this one.

I once prayed to God for an iPhone, but quickly found out He didn't work that way...so I stole an iPhone and prayed for His forgiveness.
