The cell-phone guy in the beginning is pretty disgusting.

The latest-generation Apple aluminum keyboards are, IMO, the best keyboards on the planet (I went through the IBM keyboard phase and don’t think it’s as good as people say it is). Very easy to clean too…

I know it sounds wrong, I thought the same too so experimenting at work was the key. But to my surprise it really does work very well. The key is making sure you rinse them well afterwards and using a very small amount of detergent as otherwise you get a residue.

Hmmm, anyone else ever tried that? It sounds SO WRONG! :)

Just put your keyboard facedown in the top of a dishwasher. Use a fraction on the normal amount of detergent and the coolest wash. Just make sure the cable is secure as you don’t want it loose in there!

Also DO NOT put fancy LCD or wireless keyboards in there…they don’t like it!! Once the cycle is finished just rinse the excess detergent off under a tap and leave upsidedown to dry for a day or two. We clean all our keyboards at work like that and it works a treat.

Get an InvisibleShield. It protects your phone and it’s much easier to wipe off than the regular screen.

What localization is that keyboard that has the Z key where the Y should be? Is it a QWERTZ keyboard? Oh, and it looks kind of Mac-y, too…with the Command/Open Apple key next to the space bar.

I’m ashamed to say that my iPhone is chronically greasy. I should get some of this magic goo.
