It's not very often I get excited about a "Fan" (One Of The Cooling Types) but the Dyson Air Multiplier seems to have raised the game.

At a RRP of £199 online & and at selected design stores. it's an expensive choice, but expect prices to fall in a few year once the early adopters have had their fill.

There's 3 models which are all very good looking from a design point of view, but what is amazing about the Air Multiplier Technology is that is causes no buffeting one constant stream of cool air and very easy to clean.

Here's what the Dyson site says

How it works

Update : @DanAdcock found me this lovely video of Sir James Dyson talking about his new invention.

Air is accelerated through an annular aperture and over a 16° airfoil-shaped ramp, generating an uninterrupted stream of smooth air.

I'm a sucker for gadgets so this one might be on my XMAS wish list.

Defo an XMAS want!

Continuing my love off all things white came across this little gem on the excellent missionbicycle.com site.

White White White From Mission Cycles

The site has a most excellent selection of bikes and a great builder, just a shame I can't get one of these shipped to the UK.. probably a good thing I would of been a good £500 worse off right now.

I haven't owned a bike for such a long time but I'm really craving after the fresh air flowing through my hair do.. esp when I finally manage to get myself to Bristol.. look out park street I'm gonna be fixie flying down your road!

( Ah that just gave me an idea ... rubs hands )

Oh and here's the inverted bike Night Rider ... nice!
