Oh, but it does blow, just flip up the little orange cover at the exhaust end, attach the hose, and voila', instant hair dryer.

I'll third the Hoover PortaPower Commercial.   
The most important thing to remember don't get one with wheels...
I've never tried blowing with mine so I don't think it does it...

I second the Hoover PortaPower endorsement. I've been using mine for 
about 30 years, and it shows no sign of ever giving up. I received an 
Oreck portable as a bonus for buying the Oreck upright (a good, 
lightweight machine), but it was so noisy that I soon went back to my 
trusty Hoover. There are two on eBay right now for very few dollars, for 
example:     http://tinyurl.com/5nrrvs
