As long as it's not monkey gravy. If the dog develops a taste for that, there could be trouble!

Man, I feel like a caveman! I breathe on the screen and use my shirt to clean it. The screen is Gorilla Glass, it had better be able to withstand my inexpensive pique polo shirt fabric.

I treat my e-reader with the same high level of TLC, though I clean the screen less frequently.

FWIW, for my 'murican comrades - I bought the $10 variety of these microfiber cloths and have been quite pleased with them. They're actually heavier than most microfiber cloths and do an excellent job.

My eyes are so bad that I could not wear glasses were it not for light-weight plastic lenses. In the past the description "coke bottle bottoms" did not do justice to describing how thick my classes were.

Of course, YMMV.

most ereader screens have a glass surface. so i just use water and a towel (paper or cloth). while eating and reading, sometimes some sauce or soup gets splashed onto the screen. i just use the condensation on the outside of the cup to wet a paper napkin and wipe off.

Actually they don't (have a glass surface, that is). The outer screen of the overwhelming majority of eInk devices is made from a clear plastic (polycarbonate, or something similar), not glass. A small number, such as the Kindle Voyage and Oasis, do have a toughened glass outer screen, but they're in the minority.

I haven't read the whole thread so apologies if I've missed some nuances. Regarding screen cleaning: I just use those cheap damp disposable cloths you buy in little pots; they're mostly intended for cleaning laptop screens.

One note is to be gentle while cleaning your ereader screen. One co-worker got enthused cleaning her PW2(??) screen and managed to crack the substrate while removing the mayonnaise.

Why was she using mayonnaise to clean the ereader in the first place? I don't think it would make a very good cleaning agent.

*Yes, I know. That is just how I read it.

Must have been full fat mayonnaise because it was obviously heavy enough to break the screen.
