Yes I saw it in person.
It is very quiet.
It cools at least as well as any other fan of similar size.
All the moving parts (unless you count chasis oscillation and tilt) are inside.

The increased cost will hurt them with this as the difference in the way the air feels (compared to a standard fan) is minimal.
The sell will come mainly from the massive improvements in safety and cleaning and, of course, the Hip factor.

I'd like to se a video of it - I mean, it must have some moving parts...

it doesn't sound cooling, or that it makes much of a sound.

Did you see it in real life?  Was it as cool as it sounds?

A bladeless fan.

I am in town, sort of. There's a little open space nearby - the old rural graveyard. They come over here to eat the flowers.

A deer was trapped in our yard. It seemed to like Griffy. She kept wandering over and laying down next to where Griffy was perched. 

The Gulf... 
Surf is high.... 
Each day everything is ok; it is ok.

Bunch of foot bearings and mutable music.

Bunch of root beer and mutated stuff. 

Bunch of uprooted, mature trees.

Ha!  After the shock wore off of almost stepping on this guy's "wife" who was hanging out at the foot of the stairs watching the cat play... I only screamed a little here and there in between shots.   Good thing I have decent zoom on my camera.    You could see the snake won the mouse war earlier in the day by the big bulge in his bellay.  ugh.

Oh! Isn't he a handsome fellow? He was probably just telling your mom's cat to leave the mice to him!

And great pix ... were you screaming like a girl the whole time you took them?

What a beautiful vessel.

And a beautiful evocation of the sight. I can almost hear and smell the rain on the water.

A 4 1/2 ft. long Black Racer snake nose to nose with mom's cat.  Yes, I screamed like a girl.
