Be thankful it's not a laptop! (My wife has a Powerbook, and I was  
drinking black coffee.)

I hope you've disconnected (unplugged) the kb. Don't open it. Let as  
much water drain as you can, and then just let it dry. It may take a  
week, but it will dry ok. Careful use of a hair dryer might speed up  
the drying process, but obviously don't melt the plastic. Maybe it'll  
be faster; sloshing doesn't sound too bad.

You're lucky - the water will evaporate and there won't be any sugar  
or other residue.
