@Brian: I'm not a kernel developer, so I'm not sure either.

Here's what I did to find it: Go to http://kernel.org. On the line by "stable: 
3.0.18", click "Gitweb". Click "tree" at the top of the page, then browse to 
drivers/hid/hid-ids.h; the device ID is visible. For comparison:
$ cat /proc/version_signature 
Ubuntu 3.0.0-15.26-generic 3.0.13

So I guess it was introduced sometime between kernel version 3.0.14 and
3.0.18 inclusive. But I have no idea how/on what schedule the Ubuntu
kernel for 11.10 is updated from the one on kernel.org.

Since this is a simple fix, only a few lines, I hope one of the Ubuntu
devs could "cherry-pick" it, if they happen to look at this bug. Worst
case: no one will, and the fix will come in the 3.2 kernel when Ubuntu
12.04 is released.
