That cleaning an N900 with alcohol is obviously not a good idea.

Also, how does cleaning it 'Outside' make any difference? Or were you just trying to say it didn't take a dip in your pint?

If you have a working flux capacitor then quite possibly. If you do, can you also pick me up next weeks lottery numbers?

Hehe, sorry. I kind of had to say that

Try putting it in a bag of rice over night, this will absorb any moisture.
Though it might be some sort of oil in the alcohol which has left a residue on the lcd. It might be worth dismantling it and giving it a clean. This time, don't use alcohol

A local phone repair shop might be able to help you, though you could probably do it yourself, it's only a TX6 drive and a small philips screwdriver, you don't need anything specialist.
There are videos on youtube you can follow.

**edit
by washing, i mean disassemble the screen and wash the screen only
not the whole cell since u were "smart" enough to get alcohol in in the first place

You could damage it if you're not careful but providing you aren't rough with anything and the plastic isn't cold, you should be fine. Look here: http://sites.google.com/site/svcr0c0/n900.
