The Android SSH client ConnectBot is quite good for what it does.
ConnectBot, at least last version I looked at, intercepts a number of keystrokes with no way of disabling - iirc alt+key are all intercepted. Good for a limited soft keyboard, not so good if you have a hardware keyboard and actually need to send those combinations through. JuiceSSH is much better at this, all key strokes get passed correctly to the server, but its management of ssh-keys is poor. ssh-agent forwarding is silently enabled with no way of disabling. If you click the checkbox to save the ssh key password it permanently saves it with no option to delete it. I don't think it is possible to change the password on an existing key. It might be a little early in the discussion to talk about 3G/4G support,
but why do you want 4G? I have great difficulty sticking within a 2GB/month data plan on 3G and I also don't generally have speed problems with 3G.
3G would probably be just as good. At one stage I was under the impression that 4G deals better with network congestion, and I do deal with congested areas (e.g. near Richmond station during peak travel periods). Not sure if this is actually the case or not. Getting back on topic, what series of Thinkpads are you looking at? I had a look at some of the X-series, they seem expensive (>=$1,899) and not as light as I hoped (>=1.31 kg).
