What do you guys use to keep your touch screen devices clean?

I've found using a micro fibre cloth works brilliantly. No water or cleaning agents. Just the dry micro fibre cloth - works wonders.
 
What's that small cloth that usually ships with screen protectors and some pouches called? Is it a lint free cloth?
 
I just rub it on my chest (t-shirt). I do tend to get strange looks when I do this. I cant stand finger marks on my screen so it is a very regular occurrence.

Ditto - when at my desk at home or office.

I'm always on my phone so this is the way I do it also :D
 
One of those sexy Apple cloths - stole a couple from the mac boxes at uni :p

Its the only Apple product I use :D
 
The consensus is micro fibre ftw. So why oh why do I see people doing strange things?

All touch screen devices should come with a pocket size micro fibre cloth. How about an article suggesting this?
 
I use the apple iPad smart cover like a squeegee.
 
If it's properly oily dirty, then I use some meths on a few pieces of bog roll. Works wonders. Doesn't leave residue and pretty much cleans the thing stukkend, because the meths simply absorb the oils and it evaporates.

My 2y/o Nokia 5800 still looks as good as the day I got it because of keeping it in a pouch and using meths on it every now and then. Resale value FTW :D
