This is why I think having add to cart buttons on a category page which shows a listing of all of the items is a good thing. You're saving those people from going another click and seeing that unneeded information.

If you're going to use manufacturer descriptions, be aware that everyone else does this too. In our industry, we had to make some changes to our internal policy to get the products from being seen as duplicate content from our competitors. Unique is very good.
