iPod was soaked in water, can I fix it?

My iPod 5G Video 60GB was soaked in a cup of water, I don't know how long, between 1 hour to 2 hours. I dried it with a towel, shook the water out, and blow-dried it on low "cool". Quickly blow-dried the seams, the usb connect & the headphone jack. While the shaking the screen light flickered on and off about 3 times. Does my iPod & Music Library stand a chance of being saved? Did I ruin it already? I don't have my original iTunes anymore.

I opened my iPod, cleaned with soft brush, and allowed to dry. Now when I put it on my dock the apple screen starts to show, then a few seconds later it clicks off. It continues to click on and off the entire time. When I plug it into a computer it shows the screen "Please wait...very low battery". Do I have to replace something?

Open it up using this guide.

Once you're at a step where you can see the logic board, you should use some strong isopropyl alcohol (90%+) and a soft brush to remove any white-ish residue you see. Let the device dry <thoroughly> to make sure all liquid is gone (this will likely take a day or two in a warm, dry place if the device is opened up. Putting the iPod in a bag of rice can also be useful at this point.) When it is dry, put it back together, and you will have your best chance of it working.

(If you do this and your device still is not working, come back and edit your question with the new symptoms, and someone should be able to recommend which part to replace.
