I did some searching and found the below link with some pictures over 3 pages, one which I've posted below!  New power head too!  Just shows how small it is!  Smaller than the DC12 do we think!

Such vitriol! I guess such overwhelming success will always attract jealousy and bitterness from those with nothing to offer.

The Roomba sells for $800 US in Japan.  Seems the Dyson is in line with everything else.

We had a customer in the other day that had moved here from Japan and they were looking for a small vacuum.  We showed them the Riccar Sunburst and they said it was far to big. After seeing the pictures of the Dyson I now see what they were talking about as far as size goes.  Different lifestyles, different cultures, different markets.

Hi Dusty,

Did they say whether they were living in an apartment or a decent-size house? The Dyson shown here might be just the ticket for someone living in a studio or one bedroom apartment with not a lot to clean.

Quite unlike the notoriously camera-shy David Oreck, who never, ever, appears in the advertising of his products...

The difference is Dave ORECK is THE MOST recognized face in the vacuum industry.  James wishes he were.

Hi Venson,

They had moved into a Condo that was mainly hardwood floor except for the bedroom.  I think they were still adjusting to the way we live...everything is bigger, appliances, cars, condos etc..

Sir James enjoys much free publicity around the world.  It’s no different with the DC26 / meet Sir James Dyson launch event.  Excite.co.jp front page has for the last 24 hours covered the Dyson DC26 event.  No other vac manufacturer can come close to drawing this much free (and expensive if purchased) press - fact.  The Japanese love technologies and they respond to technologies invented at Dyson.

A fond hope, I'm sure - where are the figures to back up this claim? 

Try standing on an English street and finding 5 people who know what an Oreck is, let alone who David Oreck is! James Dyson and his creations, on the other hand, are never out of the media - print, television, even radio!

The facts and figures are that your fave brand exports 2/3 of its total vacuums to the USA market.  In the USA, Dave ORECK is the most recognized face in the vacuum industry.  That is a given and well known fact here in the US vacuum industry.
