Minutes later I noticed it was missing, only to find that it was submerged in a cup of ice water. Here's one for the trash heap.

It may look like nothing is floating in there.. but you do know that feces remnants remain in the toilet bowl walls as well as the water. Not everything gets flushed.. remember the spinach Ecoli alert -- whatever you do, don't put the headset in your mouth. LOL. Can’t believe you said the water was “clean”.

My wife dropped my Kjam in the toilet last month. 2 Days later, it was working fine again and have had no trouble since. PS. She said it bubbled, so it was in long enough to get into the goods!

Your ears are extremely sensitive, there are always fluids in there, and they are warm. Stethescopes must be cleaned with alcohol before passing them to another person. Ear infections are -nasty- and you dont want one. It could damage your hearing forever. You should definitely hit it with alcohol. Or toss it. Your ears are probably worth more than your headset.

I don't even think I would have fished it out if *clean* toilet water....if there really is such a thing. Oh well, if the texture of your skin ever changes to mucus and you start turning green, I guess you'll know what to do the next time it happens :) You are much more brave than I’ll ever be.

Would I stick it in my ear right away? I'm not so sure about that. You probably should clean your headset. I know the water is 'clean', but it's something that would bother me just *knowing* I dropped the thing in the toilet. Pull the batteries out. Get some Isopropyl alcohol, dump it in a jar, and soak the thing in it for a while. Swish it around. Then, put it in the sun for a day or two to let it completely dry out. It'll be clean. You wont feel icky. Life will be good again. Or... sell it on ebay. If I dropped $100 (what I paid for my unused jabra) in the toilet, I would probably reach in and pull it out.
