From apple's website: “iPad has an oleophobic coating on the screen; simply wipe iPad’s screen with a soft, lint-free cloth to remove oil left by your hands. The ability of this coating to repel oil will diminish over time with normal usage, and rubbing the screen with an abrasive material will further diminish its effect and may scratch your screen.” It’s true – you’ll want to stick with a professional product and cloth like fountonium (http://fountonium.com) to make sure the oleophobic coating stays intact.

There is a special coating on the screen, chemicals and abrasives can damage this coating. This is not a "BS rumour" it is a known fact from Apple's iPad user guide: "iPad has an oleophobic coating on the screen; simply wipe iPad’s screen with a soft, lint-free cloth to remove oil left by your hands. The ability of this coating to repel oil will diminish over time with normal usage, and rubbing the screen with an abrasive material will further diminish its effect and may scratch your screen." http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iPad_Important_Product_Information_Guide.pdf You are free to use whatever you want on your screen, but I would not recommend straying from Apple's guidelines if you wish to maintain your screens usability and the devices warranty.

Alcohol cannot damage the glass itself nor the touchscreen underneath. Please explain your reasoning and give evidence to such statements, lest you want to be spreading BS rumours.
