That link you just posted seems nice. I don't know quite the reason people would be against glass-top humidors other than the fact that there's less wood surface area and maybe if some temperature changes happened suddenly condensation might build up pretty badly on the glass?
I would get one of the adjustable hygrometers on either one of these pages:

I think many here will stress the importance of an adjustable hygrometer. Your hygrometer may be off by many points, and the ability to reset it to the correct humidity will definitely make it easier for your to check your humidity.
Also, the adjustable hygrometers are, I think, "thermo-hygrometers" that display temperature and RH, so you don't have to worry about giving up temperature for adjustability. (I might be wrong though if there's something more involved with a hygrometer being "thermo-" other than the fact that it displays temperature.)
Edit:
See I have no clue how much of a difference having some glass on your humidor will make, any idea? Also, im not sure if it would be a huge problem keeping the humidity in with the compartments since that humidor when closed is just one large box. If I were not to get these, any idea of where to get a humidor that holds at least 200, works great and looks beautiful?
Ok, so I thought I'd leave this subject alone, but I've decided to revisit it incase you're seeing that humidor differently. I'm afraid that the Genova (
http://www.cigarhumidors-online.com/cigar-...novaenlarge.htm) won't be easy to humidify because it has three separate compartments. The center and the two side compartments. It seems to me (you might know otherwise) that when you close all of the compartments, the humidor does not become one interconnected box but rather a box of three separated compartments that you will have to humidify differently. Now for ease of use, I think that this design would be problematic. But, I thought, on the other hand, that if you want kind of a "ready to smoke" humidor without having to buy another humidor, you could use on of the side compartments as that "ready to smoke" areas because they're shut off from the rest of the humidor.
Now if I'm wrong and there's somehow an airflow connection between the side compartments and the center portion when everything is closed, then please excuse my ignorant comments. Otherwise, I hope the above paragraph will help you with your decision. I actually think it might be kinda cool to have a "ready to smoke" humidor connected to my storage humidor, hah!
