I have seen but not used water based vacs.  More tagged as 'carpet 
cleaning'.  You could hire them from shops at one point.  Maybe they 
were the 'Rainbow' mode that you mentioned?

Same here.  Doesn't seem like a big enough problem to warrant the 
expense (assuming that they are indeed better).  I've never bought 
things for cool factor alone.

Plus I would almost never buy V1 of something radically new.  Even the 
original Dyson vac looks relatively primitive and lacks a lot of the 
refinements of the newer generations.
