Agreed.  This device was similar to a tiny Dyson Airblade and when the
humidity was low, the film came off very close to dry.  They even had
one built in to the K-Lab Kodachrome minilab things that never really
took off.  Of course Kodachrome processing lines varied widely, so
maybe the one I used wasn't like the one you used.
