~ The DDM DC22 (TurboHead & MotorHead) arrives in the U.S. ~
James Dyson and his team invent another revolutionary vacuum and invent another Dyson only market segment.
 - Pre-motor filter to be washed once every seven years.
- The on/off button lights red when it's time to clean pre-motor filter.
- The pre-motor filter is large and fits AROUND the motor.
 - The DDM is extremely powerful.
- The DDM can/will outlast its user.
- The DDM automatically shuts off when airflow is interrupted for more than 10 seconds.
- The Hepa filter AFTER the motor will never turn black with carbon dust and never needs attention.
- Controls are in the hose handle.
- A DC05 MotorHead-like power nozzle. Telescopic wand.
- A very cool bare floor nozzle, and very cool full sized attachments (which store on the hose).
Update... - Exclusive: Patented Dyson Digital Motor, very powerful!, unique and strong sounding. Should/could last a lifetime (your lifetime).
- Exclusive: Little or possibly no pre-filter maintenance if bin is emptied as recommended.
- Exclusive: Patented Telescopic Wand: Lightweight, plastic, very strong.
- Exclusive: Filtration - Core + Root Technology, w/ 21 high efficiency cyclones.
- Motor burn out: If airflow is cut off, if pre-filter clogs (prematurely or after many, many years of use) - motor shuts down and a signal light illuminates.
- Size: Small, DC05 - like. Compacts down via the patented TW.
- Controls: In handle, power on/off, hi/lo speeds, brush on/off.
- Retail: $799. Sold exclusively through independent Dyson dealers where the vacuum can be properly demonstrated and it’s benefits explained.

So when you say a "DC05-type Motorhead" will be featured with the US DC22, that means it's a different design (for the US) that will differ from the JDM version, right? iMacDaddy, I do not want to mislead... I am only a Dyson enthusiast. I have no additional information on the nozzle as of yet. DIB

. . . I also could not justify $700 for a german vac that has a hose that does not last 1 year.
Hi Hardsell, I get your point but all the votes aren't in yet. My S7 is doing just great and I have had no problem with the hose as of yet. We won't know for at least another four to six months if this will prove a major point of complaint by consumers. I would note, present economy in mind, I have no sense of assuredness as to the S7 moving on to be a big seller not because of quality issues but because it is expensive. Nonetheless, I have been a staunch canister lover for many years and this specific vacuum is about the only upright I consider a good alternative --at least for me. Venson

This year's VDTA so far has gotten no local TV coverage. First time in recent years that this is the case. Tho, forecasts say 4,000 attendeees are expected, I think they missed the mark by quite abit. Several persons I know who in the past got tickets from their local employers to scope out the VDTA didn't this year. No doubt a result of money and perk cutbacks, down sizing and the current economic hard times. Carmine D.
Also as of now, no newsaper coverage. Perhaps in today's paper? After I peruse, I'll know.
