Nope, it's just like keyboard button's they're just connected to electronics, not electronics!So it's safe to clean it with a wet clothwaratte wrote:It wouldn't work if it wasn't electronics.

That's why you let it dry before putting it back togetherAND EVEN IF it wasn't in contact with electronics, there's condensation. The part that we are wetting is INSIDE the PSP casing.
it wouldn't be closed if you have to open it to clean it...Water is now introduced to the (mostly) closed environment,
Maybe if you used a completely dripping wet rag to clean the button surface in the PSP, but no one is that stupid (I hope).free to roam onto something that can actually short-circuit.
I have used a rag (wetted w/ water and rung out well) to clean plenty of super dirty PC parts and they worked fine afterwardWould you clean the inside of your computer with water? Because that is what a PSP is. A computer.
