Windex + cotton towel? + paper towel?

Anyone have a good (and hopefully not too expensive) suggestion for a "wipes" type window cleaning product - one that has pre-moistened wipes in a box or something? Those things are convenient :)

If not, what product is best to wipe windows with?

I tried that stuff when I first got into Zaino. It really cleans the glass but I don't like the powder it leaves. Having to vacuum after window cleaning didn't sit well.
I am low tech now, Glass plus and Scott towels are my recipe.

Don't use the Windex wipes! They suck! You still have to go back with a diaper or paper towel to clean off the streaks they leave behind.

Try cleaning with regular Windex and a paper towel or diaper, then once it's dry go back and rub the glass down with a wadded up newspaper. Works wonders...

If you use a wizards towel with your viniger water cleaner or windex it workd great. The wizards towel is the tightest weave micro fine towel I've found, but it cost about 20 bucks. My wife loves to use it in the house for all her mirrors doesnt leave the darn streaks. I have other microfine towels from wallmart for my paint but they dont work like this one does on windows.

Just my wifes .02 and thats good enough for me, shes a resident expert and I know better than to argue.
