Good news -- I've been wondering how Ubuntu would deal with my T41.

The other stumbling block, however, is KDE support -- although their FAQ states that they do have the KDE packages in 'universe', but it's not quite as polished as the GNOME support just yet.

I'm looking forward to trying it out; reportedly, if you're seat-of-the-pants-hacky enough, you can apt-get dist-upgrade your way from Debian unstable directly to Ubuntu so I might do that ;)
