Sweat and humidity have been known to cause the tags to turn pink as well. Contact one1 here on the forums. He likes to repair iphone and simply asks for a small donation and of course you pay for the price of the part it needs. Look him up. He has helped alot of members.

the genius bar attendant told me that the sensor only turns red from an immense amount of water. water drops, according to him will not change the color

^^He was blowin steam somewhere.....water drops will most certainly cause the paper to discolor.

Like i said, humidity in the air has been known to cause them to turn pink as well. Building up heat in a pocket on a cold day can cause condensation to set them off as well. Make that "Genius" prove it to you with his iphone.

I'll soon be departing for a tropical isle for winter break and have recently FedEx'd my 1st gen iphone to the Northeast Maritime Institute to have it Shellback'd for $120! Why I'd carry my iphone with me on the banana boat is anyone's guess... but, better to be safe than sorry!

yeah, i saw that, how ironic. they base their product on making devices waterproof, yet they claim no type of guarantee. either way, seems their product increases your devices chances of survival. i am in the u.s. coast guard, so this is something i am def interested in. a guy got his 1st gen iphone ruint on the boat one time. a guy was using it to text his gf and dropped it on the deck, a deck covered in about 2 inches of water. it never stood a chance.

LOL my wife wouldnt either. crazy part of that story is the dude didnt have the iphone owners permission to use the phone, he picked it up while the guy was doing something else. ironically it happened 2 days after the 3G was released. the moron that dropped it had to fork over the cost of the 16GB upgrade. i got the water damaged iphone in my drawer. gonna send it to One1 for parts. i dont need it.
