I've been using the iLiad for the past few weeks here in hot, dry Arizona, and was wondering if anyone has any experience with using the iLiad in a humid, tropical environment. I'm hoping to be taking it on vacation with me to the Carribbean, but am a little worried that the dampness might affect the device...

I thought I recalled some very early technical postings warning about a lack of water-resistance in e-Ink devices. Anyone used their iLiad around a pool or the beach? How paranoid do I need to be?
