Default Leather Conditioner on Ventilated Seats? Also Best Anti-Static/Dust for LCD and Dash

I have a three part detailing question, mainly related to a new Caddy STS we just picked up for my dad - it has the heated and cooled/ventilated seats:

1) I've always used Lexol on my leather interiors in the past. With the ventilated seats, are there any precautions to using or not using a cream based leather conditioner like Lexol? My concern would be the cream seeping into and/or clogging the tiny holes for the vented air.

2) Even after just a few days of getting the car, the dash has picked up a TON of visible dust. I don't like the greasy shiny typical Armour All look, but is there a cleaning / anti-static / anti-dust cleaner that will work for the dash and interior panels?

3) I'm sure this has come up before, but in addition to fingerprints, there is a ton of dust collecting on the LCD screen. What is the best way to clean that screen of the fingerprints, and does anything work well as a dust repellant?

I have the same problem on our high-def video camera we just bought with the touch screen LCD, the fingerprints seem to be tough to wipe off.

Thanks in advance for any advice, tips, and links.

I used to use Meguires Cream Leather Conditioner on my TA seats - had same problem with perforated inserts clogging, cream turning brown and looking like ***.

I switched to the Meguires Spray-On Leather Conditioner and problem solved.
