ERIS USERS: Do your fingers sometime stick when sliding on the Eris's screen?

im at work and i have no microfiber cloth, lint free cloth, or soft t-shirt close by (slacks, button up, tie won't suffice (already tried))

any other possible solutions?

its kind of a pain isn't it? always having to wipe the phone off in order to slide with precision

Ah yes, been there. I will sometimes use my slacks, and if the screen is really bad I will use a tissue combined with a little "hot breath". The screen is pretty durable, as long as you aren't using anything terrible abrasive you should be fine.

*EDIT* Take your sock off, and use that. ;)

After a couple weeks of use, oil will build up from my fingers and face (I have a greasy head :( ) and even wiping with a microfiber cloth for glasses, there is a sheen on the screen. So I grab some Dawn (soap) and smear it on the screen and rub it around with my finger. Then remove it with a damp paper towel, then buff with the microfiber.

Sometimes my fingers "stick" but there's usually some type of gunk on the screen or something. dunno.

WEeks?!??! Good lord... I clean my screen several times a day. The frequency with with you clean it is inversely proportional to the amount of fecal matter and other undesirable substances generally present.

Oh I clean it a couple times a day with a microfiber or tshirt. It helps the smudges, but the grease is still there and needs to be removed every couple weeks.
