Well, if it's relatively new, you can go and look into getting a replacement
on warranty.
Another possibility if it's off warranty, is to open it up and clean out the
keyboard matrix contacts underneath. If it's water, it shouldn't have done
too much-pop on the other hand is corrosive and conductive and much worse.
Let it dry completely before trying it out again.
A third possibility is to just go and buy a new keyboard. Your average
clone keyboard is like $5 down on College.
