Actually, that doesn't necessarily mean anything. For example, I've
got a DTU-2231 with a pen designated "UP-818E" whose eraser end has an
eyelet and near-zero (physical) pressure response. However, the eraser
end moves the cursor on screen and is pressure-sensitive in
applications.

That said, if the eraser end doesn't move around the cursor, there's a
very good chance that there's no eraser. Examining a dump of the USB
data would let you be "sure" (there shouldn't *be* a dump if there's
no eraser ;)), but that's probably overkill ;)
