moisture condensation problems

During last week's trip to Mata Atlantica rainforests near Paraty,
Brasil, I noticed that my Sony TCD-D7 interrupted recording and playback
with the "moisture condensation" lamp flashing quite frequently.
Sometimes opening the back of the recorder fixed the problem, sometimes
I just had to wait, and once I accidentally stripped a screw doing this.
I have a strong desire to ditch this machine, so can anyone report if
HDD or CF based recorders tend to have similar problems with
extreme/tropical humidity? The SD 722, for example...

thx,
d
