Last October, Apple shocked the world by introducing a simple, grey polishing cloth at the price of $19. Needless to say, it sold out almost immediately, rendering us geeks unable to buy the perfect ironic Christmas gift.

Now, as noticed by MacRumors, the legendary cleaning device is back in stock. The price is still $19, don't worry. And according to Apple's online store, the cloth should ship within two days in the U.S.

Note that Apple's retail stores don't seem to hold the cloth right now, so you'll have to go through the online store if you want one.

As for why would you want to spend $19 on a piece of cloth, beside bragging rights...well, Apple does say it is made with "soft, nonabrasive material" and that it "cleans any Apple display, including nano-texture glass, safely and effectively." I'm ordering mine as I type.
