Scientists Create "Water" That Isn't Wet
Tuesday on Good Morning America, a representative from Tyco Fire & Security demonstrated an amazing new substance called Sapphire: a water-like fluid that does not get things wet. He filled a small fish tank with Sapphire and submerged a book, a laptop, and a flat panel TV. Both electronics were turned on when submerged; all three items came out completely unharmed. The official name for Sapphire is actually Novec 1230. Read about it here (PDF). Tyco sees practical applications of Sapphire in fire extinguisher systems for museums and libraries. By the same token of practicality, regular readers of Slashdot probably have something else in mind: total-immersion watercooling. Just think of the possibilities!"

Really expensive and boils at low temperature but would be cool to put stuff in and take it out without it being wet

Does this water hydrate you!? How low is the boiling point? Like if you drink it would your b*o*d*y heat it up enough to boil?

Water that doesn't get you wet weird. What does it do to you then? Fall off you like you have wax on your body or something?

Awesome--fire retardant that doesn't get wet. Great for fire protection or heat regulation.
