Well, I already bought a brando from this site after reading some of the posts here but I want to know how to clean my screen. I want the Brando to cover a beautiful looking clean screen. I was thinking about using Windex or something like that but then I thought I might damage it. So what do you guys think I can use to clean my screen and/or where can I get it???

I notice that now you can get pda screen polish which probably does the same thing. it really does make a difference. if you do it now, then apply a screen protector , you should be alright

I have been using these for years on all my Palm units, and they have always worked great. __________________ Redistribution of wealth? Tax and Spend? Gun Control? What are we Robin Hood?

I put a screen protector on it b4 I layed eyes on it's naked screen. EDIT: It just felt cool to use that little ® symbol. __________________ Palm III > Palm m100 > Sony Clie NR70 > NX70V > NX80V > TH55 > iPhone v1 > iPhone 3G > iPhone 3GS > iPhone 4 > iPad Twitter \| Web Design Last edited by NX70BOY : 07-29-2003 at 03:51 PM.

21stcenturymac Where's my NX70? Platinum Contributor Join Date: May 2003 Location: Orlando, Florida Posts: 135	My high-tech solution is the Spontex Microfibre Cleaning Cloth. No fluid needed and it polishes my screen to factory-perfect everytime. It's usually used for photography optics, lenses and other super sensitive surfaces. It's 15.75" x 12" and folds up nicely for travel in its supplied pouch. Got it at a camera shop originally to clean my laptop screen. __________________ Running in wheel to get to cheese. . .

Try it and see the difference (before and after). __________________ And do not forget to do good and to share with others...

Glad to have a good laugh when things aren't going too well <sigh>
