    I'm cleaning it with water and a soft piece of tissue paper. Seriously.

    not sure if using tissue is a good idea. they're still pretty rough.
    Use those microfiber cloth sold by 3M or iKleaner or other companies such as targus, kensington, etc.

    I use lens cleaner cloths on my LCD monitor. Not a good idea here?

    .... you're just asking for problems.

    Use a microfibre cloth used for cleaning eye glasses.

    The Sony Style store at the Metreon in San Francisco recommended Monster ScreenClean. This comes in a kit along with a large blue microfiber (80% polyester 20% polyamide) cloth.

    I bought the kit last weekend and it works great, removing all the grime from the screen that somehow accumulated since I purchased my SZ160P in March. I have also used it on my HP h6315 iPAQ Pocket PC screen, also with excellent results.

    Be sure to spray the microfiber cloth on one section and rub in a circular fashion. Then use a dry part of the cloth to dry the screen also in a circular fashion. This may be an obvious point but the Sony rep cautioned that you should not spray the screen directly with the Monster ScreenClean spray.
