I haven't tried this but AFAIK, baby wipes are a great cleaning wipe, for just about everything. :) I use them on my screens, and then wipe with a dry cloth after. it works relatively well, in a pinch, and there isn't anything harsh in them,(AFAIK) you know being used on kids' behinds and all :).

Cue, the person screaming that this is a horrible idea. :P

The solution in baby wipes is effective because they have an emollient that allows water and grease to be wiped up together. But be sure to follow up with a dry lint free fabric like microfiber. This way you still get the gentle friction you need to really get the grime off, but don't trade one problem for another by gumming your keyboard with lint or scratching your not so rugged polycarbonate unibody.
