Suggestions for cleaning an iPad screen?
It's got so much finger grease on it I can no longer read it.

No, I'm at the office and do not have access to a soft cloth.

2. Kleenex?
Your shirt?

I clean my iPhone screen by wiping it on my jeans. Hasn't caused any problems in the year I've had it.

3. I'd be careful about using paper products instead of cloth; some paper
fibers can be quite hard

5. Seiously?
You mean something that costs that much and comes from a company that is supposed to be customer orientated has nothing in the manual, on the ipad forums, or Apple users groups says nothing on how to clean an ipad?

Products Affected

iPad
Resolution

If your device is experiencing any of the symptoms listed above, try the following steps:

1. Clean the iPad screen with a soft, slightly damp, lint-free cloth.

Hmmmm and then this

support.apple.com/manuals/ipad.

Using and Cleaning iPad
Using iPad Comfortably
It’s important to find a comfortable posture when using iPad and to take frequent breaks. Let your lap, a table, case, or dock accessory support iPad during use.
Cleaning iPad
Handle your iPad with care to maintain its appearance. If you are concerned
about scratching or abrasion, you can use one of the many cases sold separately.
To clean iPad, unplug all cables and turn off iPad (press and hold the Sleep/ Wake button, and then slide the onscreen slider). Then use a soft, slightly damp, lint-free cloth. Avoid getting moisture in openings. Don’t use window cleaners, household cleaners, aerosol sprays, solvents, alcohol, ammonia, or abrasives to clean iPad. iPad has an oleophobic coating on the screen; simply wipe the iPad screen with a soft, lint-free cloth to remove oil left by your hands. The ability of this coating to repel oil will diminish over time with normal usage, and rubbing the screen with an abrasive material will further diminish its effect and may scratch your screen.
For additional information about handling iPad, see the iPad Important Product Information Guide at support.apple.com/manuals/ipad.
