I used to sell digital cameras for a living. One common question potential buyers would ask is: "Should I wait awhile to buy one? I don't want this to be obsolete in the near future." My response? "Does this camera do what you currently want a camera to do?" If they said yes, I would follow up with: "Then why wait? It won't be obsolete until (or if) it can't do the things you want it to do."
Will the Touch do what you want it to do? Will that satisfy you for a reasonable amount of time? Don't think of "what if?", think of "what is?"
