Found this on Grabone this morning, I saw Dyson's version of this not too long ago going for around 1k so I guess the Chinese finally managed to make a copy of it.
But why should you get a Bladeless Air Multiplier? How is it any better than that rusty old fan you got from that Garage Sale? Well firstly the 'AirMate' is a bladeless fan that uses Air Multiplier technology to generate smooth, uninterrupted airflow with no unpleasant buffeting. This means that you don’t get that 'choppy', irregular bursts of cold air blowing on your face…you just an even flow of coolness! Top this off with the fact that the 'AirMate' has NO blades & there for is safe for kids (even your curious cat) AND you get a choice of either a Black & Blue, Silver OR White fan & you've got one great summer-time lifesaver! Throw in Nationwide delivery to anywhere in Australia as well as a 12 Month Warranty & you've got one great deal!
Darn, I just bought a $15 standing fan.
