The best thing to do in this case (did it with a calculator, when ythey
used to cost >200) is to put it in a dessicator.
If you live near a college, a lot of labs will have one. Basically a
large glass chamber, with a granular material (dessicant) on the botton
that absorbs moisture. The dessicant is heated to drive out moisture,
then poured into the chamber. A shelf of some kind is usually there to
put something on.
The beauty is this will dry more than you can by just leaving the device
to dry naturally (avg room is 30-60% humidity) plus it's a lot quicker.
