With Deven I got the book how to potty train in a day. No it didn't work in 1 day, but he did potty train in 4 weeks. Basically the idea is to let them train a doll (get one that pees) and do this for a few days (until he gets it) then start putting him on the potty and make a really big deal out of it (everyone need to chip in here, if your family and friends can praise him on the phone that's even better). As rewards give lots of liquids ( this of course makes him have to go potty more). You really need to spend a lot of time doing this so aim for an uneventfull weekend.
