I've got chamois, towels, the absorber, a waterblade and now a leaf blower. So I can say I've tried them all.
I've yet to find a towel (cotton) that dosn't leave LINT of some sort around, no matter how many times I wash it.
The abosrver was good, but it still left some water spots, and it never got the "hidden" water.
The blade is great, I would use it first to to the quick dry on large flat parts, then use the absorber to finish the truck off.
The leaf blower is the best. Gets all the hidden water and everything else....just like my own private carwash!

I have used an absorber for the life of my truck also (2.5 yrs). Never had a problem with it scratching or holding any dirt or residue. The the fact that they are machine washable is very nice too.
Think of it as the k&n filter for your paint job.
