My wife dropped her iPhone on the lawn last night without knowing and it rained and snowed, woke up and came outside, saw it there, dried it off with a paper towel and it works perfectly. The white sticker in the headphone jack is still white too!

Lucked out big time. :D
 
Quick, go buy a lottery ticket.

Seriously, that's pretty darn lucky. If it starts acting screwy you can still take it to Apple.

That's crazy, but I am not too surprised. About two years ago I dropped my 20GB iPod in my driveway without knowing. That night we just happened to be in the middle of a rain storm. I dropped it around midnight and didn't find it until about 10am the next morning. It lasted in my driveway for 10 hours in the rain, I was pretty surprised. I still own that iPod and it still works perfectly.
