But then, perhaps the knowledge of this development is what prompted the agreement for a PWG Cloud printing activity.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;color:#1F497D'>Of course, I seem to recall that ThinPrint was promising a Google Cloud Printing solution last year.
