HUGE but a huge help
I bought this product after finding multiple spots on my photos.
The best way to test if you have dust on your camera's sensor is to set your f-value very high such as f-22 and take picture of the sky or a bright piece of paper. Dust usually only appears in your photos at smaller apertures. You should be able to see most blotches clearly if you do the test right.
Anyway this thing did the job perfectly. I know how sensitive camera sensors are and am a little hesitant about using the "wet" method. And besides this is much cheaper. All you do is go into a dust free room (bathroom worked for me) take off your lens set your camera to mirror lock-up mode stick the little red tube into the lens bay and give it a few blows. Wait about 5 seconds after each blow to allow the dust to fall out. Just make sure you do this is a room free of moisture. Then you just pop the lens back on and take another test shot.
It also works great for taking dust off your lenses off of your camera out of your computer keyboard or really anything.
The only cons I can think of are that it is too big to fit in my camera bag and that it is loud. But it is still well worth the money and five stars.

Works fine ... but you don't have to pay that much
If you haven't used a lens pen I think you'll be pleasantly surprised -- it works well. The description doesn't make it very clear that this product has TWO different cleaning tools one at each end. The brush which retracts is to take off dust particles. Hidden in the other end is a soft pad with a cleaning agent to remove fingerprints and more serious dirt hopefully without damaging the anti-reflection coating on your lens.
My only reservation is that this particular "Cleaning System" is a bit overpriced (at the time I wrote this review Amazon was selling it for about $21). Essentially identical double-ended Lens Pens without the Nikon name attached cost $8-$10 from many sources including Amazon (search "Lens Pen") so you're paying quite a lot to impress your friends ;-)
One more thought: another reviewer mentioned cleaning his lens daily with this product. That's not such a great idea. Camera lenses and especially their anti-reflection coatings are quite fragile. The more often you clean your lens the more likely you'll damage the coating or even scratch the lens due to a small dirt particle on the cleaning pad (likewise NEVER clean a lens with bathroom tissues since they contain tiny hard wood chips).
The fact is a moderate amount of dust and dirt on your lens does NOT affect the pictures you take since anything that close to the lens is so out of focus.
PS -- Here's an update: I just got an Adorama Camera catalog that lists this lens pen WITH the Nikon name for $6.50! Imagine that.

Best lens cleaner on the market
I have the Nikon Lens Pen Cleaning System which I purchased for a fast easy way to clean my lens however this system is much more effective. The cleaner is phenomenal and the pre-moistened cloths that come with the package are easy to use and very effective. Very compact and at 4in x 2 1/2 the cleaner can tag along in my Crumpler with no problem. All of the dust particles I've had on my camera from the Nikon Lens Pen Cleaning System have been picked up completely by the Nikon Complete Lens Cleaner Kit I'm back to crystal clear pictures again.

The only lens cleaning tool I keep with me
I have tried so many different cleaning tools and I always stuck with the basic lens tissues and cleaners. But with today's lenses they didn't do the job (speed and ease) I was looking for.
The guy at my local (100 year old) camera shop recommended I try one of these.
I have removed all other cleaning items out of my bag except for one "cloth" that I use to clean the outside of my camera and this pen.
Always start with the "brush" to brush away any grit or sand that could possibly scratch the lens. Then lightly use the other side (felt) to clean away smudges and other marks. It's quick easy and unbelievably effective!
I use it on my lenses the LCD of my SLR and even my cell phone.
The first one lasted me a year. I am on my second and recommend it everywhere I go.

Good but not size described
2006 Amazon states;
Product Dimensions: 13.0 x 10.0 x 7.0 inches
There was no photo (until I uploaded one) so I thought this was the size stated but turned out to be one of the little keychain bags with about a 5x5 cloth inside.
Works fine just not what I thought it was and didn't want someone else to think it was large also. See my photo for actual size next to some keys.
Update 4/8/2006
I see they added a photo of what I THOUGHT I was getting when I ordered.. see my uploaded photo in "customer" photos to see what they sent.
Edit 03/12/2008
Been used and washed many many times now and still doing a good job. I keep it on my belt loop every day so outside bag is showing a bit of shine in spots and is a bit lighter in color now but micro fiber inside is like new. Was a good $5 purchase.
Edit 07/29/2008
Looks like they have the original info problem replaced at this point in time...
Now there are new dimensions listed but my old cloth still measures
7 x 5.5 inches.
Did they narrow it to 2.5 inches or is it another typo ?
I'd bet on another typo.
and since I'm here... weight on digital postal scale is 0.2 ounces ready to use 8-)
Yes still working well and washed even more times...
just so you know I use it for my plastic eye glasses not my camera lenses. Looking through the DSLR view finder in hot weather pushes my glasses into my face and makes a mess.. when shooting I keep this cloth clipped high on the neck strap ready for fast action before next shot. Needs washing after each day of use in Summer heat.

Absolutely amazing!
I had been wondering about strange blurry objects in some of my pictures - turned out to be dust and fibers on the image sensor. First I tried a blower (Giottos Rocket Air Blaster) as recommended and this got some of it off. I then tried an expensive set of swabs with Eclipse fluid. This helped but there were still visible dust spots.
Then I tried the Sensor Klear. It seemed almost too simple - a turn of the cap a few wipes of the sensor with the triangular tip and then done. I took another picture (f22 infinity focus of blue sky). ALL of the dust was gone!
What delights me even more is that the Sensor Klear is safe to take on an airplane which Eclipse fluid is not. This will be very handy when I go on my vacation later this year.
You do still need a blower to get rid of larger particles first as advised in the Sensor Klear instructions but I see little need for expensive and complicated wet cleaning solutions as long as I have a Sensor Klear. Highly recommended.

Best optical cleaner for your lens.
I've been using "regular" lens cleaning solution for my SLR lens with microfiber cloth for years and I didn't have much complaint. It's just those solutions probably are mostly distilled water just didn't see those solutions do much on the lens itself. I just cleaned the lens with gentle elbow grease I guess... Then I heard about Purosol from my colleagues and thought to give it a try. It sprays like any other solution but it does wipe off dirt and prints without much rubbing at all. Apply the solution to the lens (or a piece of microfiber cloth) and sort of very lightly rub the lens with circular motion and the dirt disappears. I guess it is water-based so it does not dry immediately but it does not leave any visible streak at all. One thing I am very impressed about is after I wipe the lens if I blow my breath on the lens to see streaks there are a lot fewer streaks than what I would see with other solution or water alone. All I need to do is to very lightly buff the surface of the lens then I don't see ANY streaks. This cleaner is totally worth the money and to protect your investment in lens there is no better cleaning solution out there.

Perfect for point and shoot cameras (or anything with a small lens)
The bottom line: Inexpensive works well easy to use lasts forever.
This Lenspen is perfect for anything with a smaller lens. It's also good for viewfinders! The thing to remember is the cap is for more than just covering up the cleaning tip. It also recharges the tip with a small amount of cleaning compound every time you replace it (and maybe also give it a quarter turn). Also in case it's not obvious from the description this model is much shorter than the standard Lenspen. Than means there's a chance it will fit into the "point and shoot" case you have hanging on your belt or around your neck. Finally and I mention this because of a valid comment made by another reviewer if you have a need to clean a larger lens then you'll want to get LensPEN Lens Cleaning System. I recommend getting both. Even if you only have a dSLR (e.g. Nikon D90 12.3MP Digital SLR Camera (Body Only)) you'll want this one for occasionally cleaning the viewfinder.

Giottos Rocket Air a simple indispensable device
This Rocket Air Blower is an indispensable product first step in cleaning DSLR camera sensorslenses computer keyboards etc. This air blower uses a hand-squeeze to generate a very strong burst of air pressure. The blower generates a burst strong enough to remove particles that might scratch a camera lens or filter safer than wiping it with lens tissue or a lens cloth. The Giottos Rocket Air Blower is actually quite soft made of strong rubber material. A light hand pressure is enough to generate a good burst of air. I constantly use this item to clean laptop keyboards as well as LCD display. I highly recommend this product to photographers with DSLR cameras and hobbyists in general. There are about 3 different sizes of this device I highly recommend the largest unit for computers and cameras.

It's air in a can! The cans come with the little concentrating straws that you stick in the nozzle in case you were wondering.

The rocket blower is what I bought the kit for and it performs as expected. The lens pen and microfiber cloth were more of a bonus. Why get just the rocket blower when you can get it and a few other items for cheaper?

Love this!
I love this cleaning set. The pen is great for quick cleaning like a little dust or salt water on the lens. EVen the accidental finger print. And the cleaning paper is great for further cleaning without lint. I do find the felt cleaning cloth does leave lint behind. I use it more for the outer parts of the camera and maybe sometimes the view finder on my nikon D60. There were some extra items that were unnecessary and sit in my camera drawer for possible future use. I do not need two brushes or pump blowers. But I may someday. We can always use extra right?!?

Warning - Cleaning Cloth Not for Cameras
Unfortunately they don't list this on the Amazon.com description but on the box it warns that the MicroFiber Cleaning Cloth is "Not recommended for high quality lenses." I bought this thinking I'd have an extra cleaning cloth for my SLR lens but it looks like it'll be used for its intended use as described by the instruction leaflet: "For cleaning the HOUSINGS of digital cameras photo equipment etc."
