Is it okay to clean your iPod Touch with just a washcloth and clean water?

I was just wondering if cleaning my iPod Touch with just water and a washcloth would be alright. Is there something better to use thats free?

A soft lint-free cloth is all that's recommended and usually all that is necessary. If you have some sort of material on the iPod that you can't get off with just a dry cloth, then you can use a damp - and by "damp" I really do mean damp; if you can squeeze any water out if it, it's too wet - cloth for just that material. It will be up to you to make sure that no liquid gets into the iPod.
