My Hoover ( http://www.hoover.com/product.aspx?model=U5780900&ds=fal... ) does all that stuff too. It even has the roller brush for stairs, couches, etc. Even better -- it works!

I'm consistently not impressed with Dyson's BS.

Hoover were found guilty of deliberately copying patented Dyson technology

Hoover failed to innovate for decades, then Dyson came along, and Hoover just started copying them.

I'd rather have the original than an imitation personally. (Original being the co. that invented the stuff, patented it etc).
