Today has been a grand ol' day of stupid. From the beginning:
This morning, I spilled water all over my desk...including my new Nexus 7.
The unit seemed ok, but to be on the safe side, I turned it off and immersed it in a box of rice.
Unfortunately, the only rice available was instant rice.
I later discovered that the rice had left small granules in the seam (bezel?) between the screen and case back.
I grabbed an exacto knife blade, and attempted to work these granules out, in fear that they would find their way into the unit.
In doing so, my blade seemed to catch a hair-thick, copper wire in the seam along the top of the screen, not too far from the camera.
I immediately stopped what I was doing, but am afraid I may have done something.
In the gap at the top of the screen, I can see a tiny glint of copper now.
Can anyone shed some light on this tiny wire I may have caught? And tell me how badly I screwed up with my day from bad to worse?
