How much, as a percentage, is this article just copy and pasted from the press release?
that's what it says at the begining of the article....
It does yes, but if I wanted to read the press release, I would've pointed my browser at Wacom's site.
If there's no hands-on or extra details that can't be gleaned from the the press release, what's the point of the article? A tweet or Facebook status plus link is a much better way of publishing info like this.
