Follow the advice under the pertinent tags at the right. (Remove power and battery ASAP - allow to dry 72hrs at least, use a desiccant NOT FORCED AIR).

You must remove the keyboard keys and clean coffee stains with Q-tip and warm water. Don't use a lot of water and don't let water goes inside the keyboard. All the key mechanism must be cleaned.

I found a product called Tronic Kleen to use on electronics, circuit boards, cd/DVD etc as well as internal components of computers.
Using it on mine because a small amount of tea got into it.
Took all apart, spayed the above on. It is rapid drying, doesn't have any chlorinated solvents, freon, and doesn't hurt plastics or paints.
So far, so good.
Tried to find "dielectric" spray with no success but this looks like the closest thing, unless the dielectric is for type rather than name of cleaner.
I know or rather I think, machead mentioned the dielectric spray but unless the aforementioned type over name is correct, I'd still be looking for a good cleaner. Maybe just wasn't clarified or.....I'm not knowledgeable enough to catch on.
Just wanted to give little more help here.
Thanks and good luck to all of us tea drinkers.....never again!

Dielectric is not a trade or brand name but a description of a type of electrical cleaner that is a poor conductor of electricity.
Thanks machead.. Have you ever heard of the spray I mentioned in my above post?
no I haven't Post back if it works.
