Is my PSP now a brick?

Hi all,
My little boy decided to see if my PSP would float yesterday, and dropped it in the bath. My fault for letting him get to it, I know. I mentally accepted the fact it would need to be binned. However, just to be safe, I immediately pulled it out, blasted it with a hair dryer until it appeared dry, and put it in the airing cupboard for 24 hours. Now, although it won't turn on, when I plug it in (ac adaptor, with battery in) the orange charging light comes on.
My question is, is there a glimmer of hope? Or shall I use it as a paperweight?
Thanks...

What does it do when you try starting it without the battery? Chances are high that the console is fried.
Xbox 360: Slim untouched with a faked 320 GB harddrive for XBL, phat with LT 3.0, played Halo early, so going on live would be an instand ban, also with a faked 320 GB harddrive
PS3: Recently updated to PS3 slim 160 GB (60 GB phat still working)
PSVita: hardly ever play it
GameCube: DOL-001 model put in a DOL-101 case. Otherwise unmodified. With gameboy player. Trying to get a Wavebird controller.
