Why are Nav screens dirty?

Hey everybody,

I like the pictures people are posting to this forum. But I have a question. Most of the pictures that have the Nav system showing have screens that are dirty or have fingerprints all over them. Why isn't anyone cleaning them? All you have to get is Laptop screen cleaner and clean it once a week. Takes about 3 seconds to do. It also reduces the static on the screen, therefore reducing the amount of lint and dust that accumulates. You can pick up the cleaner from Fry's or Best Buy for about 6 bucks.

I think we are cleaning them weekly, if not more often. But they somehow get "dirty" much sooner.

The Nav got fingerprints because they are touch screens.

It's a given rule that the more you clean, the dirtier it gets.

Keep your fingers clean too. It's hard to clean the screen if you have some lotion on you finger tip.
