Yes, I'm another tinkerer. I found the same things you did; no touchscreen
and the wireless doesn't work.

The manufacturer provides Linux drivers for the Wireless, but they don't
work. ndiswrapper also didn't help with this card.

As to the touchscreen - it's detected by the kernel and X, but simply
doesn't work. I've been meaning to cat the event file and see if it's
sending anything at all. One report on the internet with the same hardware
says that they upgraded to a kernel.org kernel and got random keystrokes
with that kernel...

So if I may ask, where did you get yours from?
