Indoor humidity meter

For medical reasons, I need to monitor the humidity level in one room of my 
house. I've seen an analog humidity meter in the Brookstone catalog for $60 or 
so, but I'd prefer a digital model. It seems like I've been through the entire 
Yellow Pages and am coming up with no alternative besides research and 
commercial equipment that start at $500.
Anyone got any ideas?

	I haven't been out to check the viability of this, but you might
	try places that sell amateur meteorology kits.  Many of these kits
	will probably have sling psychrometers or hair hygrometers, but some
	may have digital hygrometers.  Try places like Radio Shack or Edmund
	Scientific.  Heathkit used to have kits like this, too, but I don't
	even know whether they're in business any more (shows you how old
	_I_ am!).

	Good luck!
