Hi Chris,
Thanks for your guidance -- the linux kernel devs have now issued a patch to fix the keyboard and stylus. They are so excellent! See thread here:
https://<email address hidden>/msg16819.html
People can either wait for the new kernel, or patch it themselves via:

[install git if you don't have it], then

$ git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git
$ cd linux-stable
$ git checkout -b v4.0.1
$ git remote add jikos git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jikos/hid.git
$ git remote update jikos
$ git cherry-pick d92189ebbdcd0eb180317d8cd6d46c57ac9a3dc0

now save the attached patch in the linux-stable directory and

$ git am -3 hid-lenovo.patch
$ cp /boot/config-$(uname -r)* .config
$ make oldconfig
$ make -j8
$ sudo make -j4 modules_install && sudo make install

then reboot, enjoy, and thank the kernel team.

Best,
Jonathan
