Apparently there's a new Dyson model that will be launched in February at the VDTA Convention.  I don't know any further specifics on whether or not it's going to be a canister or upright, but apparently all attendees of the show will be able to see it and place their orders.  I wonder if the $899 pricetag will be a detriment to sales, or are Americans willing to pay a premium for superior performance and space-age motor technology?

Has anyone else heard anything yet?  I'm curious to know what it is as I bought the DC21 right when it came out in March.  That and the DC17 are the only ones that impressed me so far, it will be interesting to see how this one is.

Hello Motorhead

Yes it does, I would think any new model like the DC22 will feature the new Level 3 'Core' technology and even some have the DDM as standard!  There was a web link on this post but has since been removed with some info for the DC23!?

DC18

Hello Just:

While that may have been true [dyson is the best among bagless] when the DC07 was launched in 2002, I'm not sure it still is today and for the future.  Of course, "best" is in the eyes of the judge.  But more prevalent and pervasive now, almost 6 years later, are a plethora of competitive upright bagless models in a wide range of prices.

I hear, haven't seen, that the City of New York opened new public bathrooms.  I presume in part for the Pope's visit in April.  I'm curious: Did dyson pitch for/win the hand drier business with the dyson AirBlade?  Anyone know and care to share with the Forum.

BTW, after 1 1/2 years on the market, I still have not seen/heard of dyson AirBlades in use anywhere in the USA.  Has anyone else?  Any major/minor dyson sales of this product to US businesses like hotels, schools, restaurants, casinos, theaters, sports complexes and/or arenas, airports,city, state, county, municipal, federal gov't buildings?  Anywhere?  Even in homes yet?

My sense is that dyson would publish and broadcast this kind of information worldwide as a product promotion to win acclaim.  Any available information on the actual sales numbers and dollars of this dyson product yet?
