Please Note – The ResMed AirMini machine has since been released with some reviews already. Click here to view them.
There are a number of rumours circulating about the design of the machine. Now, it must be said that I cannot speak to the authenticity of the picture shown. But it looks strikingly similar to the descriptions of the machine from those who attended the launch. A few CPAP suppliers from the Sydney area were present, and some leaks (not mask leaks, excuse the pun) about the size, shape and features of the machine have slipped out of some not-so-tightly sealed lips.
It is a little secret that ResMed have been looking at entering into the lucrative travel-CPAP market for some time. In fact, when I visited ResMed HQ five years ago, part of their development team was busy pulling apart and analyzing the main players in this space. Namely, I recall parts from a Transcend machine splayed across one technicians desk.
In addition, the machine is set to be released with a price tag of $2100 Australian. This is a similar price point to their bedside unit, the AirSense 10 AutoSet so I would expect the AirMini machines to have a similar price point to the AirSense AutoSets in the USA ($US800 to $US900).

What are the rumours?
First of all, it is going to be small. Very Small. Although the dimensions will need to be confirmed, the machine is rumoured to be about 33mm by 130mm by 200mm long. About the size of a digital camera. In CPAP terms: miniscule.In addition, the machine is set to be released with a price tag of $2100 Australian.
