Thanks DIB for the info.  Thought it might use a carbon brush motor!  Although I believe they are trying to work on more smaller, quieter, powerful versions of the DDM!  Do like the new floor tool, looks air driven not motor driven?   Very different to the ball on the motorhead power nozzle!

P.S. We now at my place of work have Airblades installed!  I think they are the new AB02's not the AB01's!!


DC18,
The hemispherical wheels/ball look like they steer the nozzle well.

The nozzles are air and motor driven.  The Motorhead uses a Telescopic Wrap system.

On a “cool factor” rating, IMO the DC26 is just as cool as the DDM DC22.  Sir James is on the attack of late by out-inventing his *enemies and rivals.

The Airblade’s are great.  Folks like to comment on them as you’re drying your hands.

 I believe there are now less than 800 billionaires on the planet.



Forbes said that in the recent edition of the Richest in the World.  Down over 300 from 2007.  You know any one who was knocked off the list?  According the Forbes wealthy list editor, nothing runs more scared than a noveau riche who falls off the billionaire's list.  After being use to the perks and prestige, they can't cope with giving them up.

Closer to earth and home, according to the latest survey of the Spectrum Group which follows these matters, the number of millionaires in the USA in 2008 fell by 27 percent.  The total number of US households with net worth of at least $1 MILLION [not counting home of residence] sank from 9.2 M in 2007 to 6.7 M in 2008.  The population of millionaires is now at the same level as 2003-4, meaning the economic crisis has erased the millionaire boom of the past 5 years.

Use to be when old man Forbes was at the helm, a friend of mine, I subscribed.  Back then they said 2/3 of the Forbes subscribers were millionaires.  Wonder if the fallen still are?

I've always presumed that the AB02 was a modified AB01, with slightly a different build for some international markets. Is there any designation on the unit? I've seen some which state AB01 on the side.

Sorry M00seUK my fault I meant to put AB03, which I checked under the unit of one today at work.  On the UK Dyson Airblade the other week or so under the Latest News Dyson launch the AB03 which is a next generation Airblade but instead of being made from the original die-cast aluminium it is made from tough, heat resistant polycarbonate-ABS same found in Dyson Vacuum Cleaners.  So my works Airblades are the new AB03, but it not stated on the front or side only on the serial sticker\plate underneath!  They only have the 2 accreditations on the front.

Several of my closest friends were knocked off the list.  I was only $99 short of being on the list.  I may give up buying cars, mowers, golf clubs and vacuums to try again to get on the list of billionaires.

I have ocean front property on the north side of Las Vegas.  I will sell it cheap if you are interested.

Ah, right. Thanks for the clarification. Yes, I've noticed that models at some locations are made of ABS/Polycarbonate.

No, not interested.  If I want a water view, I'll put my underground irrigation system on manual and let it run for a day or two.  It will flood the neighborhood!

You know the definition of a recession?  When your neighbor's wife loses her job.  You know the definition of a depression [with a small d]?  When your neighbor loses his job.  You know the definition of a Depression [with a large D].  When you lose your job!

Nice to know that you have not been affected [yet]!  Vegas and Nevada have been hard hit.  Probably one of the worse affected in the country on all accounts:  Jobs loss, property values depressed, foreclosures, ad infinitum.  Even the influx of people out-of-state and country, so long the foundation of the construction industry which fueled the people and business growth, has subsided to all time lows.

We discussed the decline in auto sales months ago.  As usual you wanted all to believe that Toyota was the only manufacturer suffering.  All are still feeling the crunch as they were back then.


Lexus, your fave luxury brand, was dropped from the top dependabilty spot by J.D. Power & Associates.  Beat out by BUICK.  Seems car buyers are trading down too not just vacuum purchasers.

I like buicks.  THey have always been GM's quality auto IMO.  Better than Cadillac.

They still do not drive and rid as good as the Lexus.
