@antney1108 that is how you pronounce iodine in every English speaking country except for the USA

The Dyson technology is very different to the Mitsubishi machine. The only similarity is 'hands in' technique, similarities end there. The jet towel uses jets of air and still relies on evaporation. The Dyson Airblade uses a continuous sheet of clean unheated air to literally scrape the water from hands.

I hope that clarifies things.

@swyda001 In James Dyson's autobiography he actually says how much he hates the word "buissness," because he says "Buisness is basically the process of making money."

"I-o-deen chamber"  I laugh and laugh.

Whether or not it works is irrelevant to the fact that he is scared of his own machine- look around 1:19 or so and watching him jump because it is just DEAFENING when it turns on! And, air flying out of there at 400 miles per hour can not be good for everyone- the elderly and other people that tend to have thin skin are going to have their skin peeled right off by this tremendous velocity. Epic fail.

I've counted how loing a dyson airblade takes to dry my hands, and it was a lot longer than 10 seconds.

Mitsubishi has infact released these dryers in the West, but after Dyson! However i gather Mitsubishi's Jet Towel handryer has market share of most of Asia as its been around the best part of 2 decades now and is in its 7th version!! In my office we favour the mitsubishi dryer after a trial with dyson proved to be dissapointing due to the high level of noise and messy operation compared to the mitsubishi!!
