I'm anxious to hear what feedback comes from the "early adopters" of
the Touch product.  My impressions from what I've seen of the specs, is
that this product will be more of a "SB3+" than a preferred controller. 
First, native 24bit/96kHz support.  Next, color display which can
provide a nice "Now Playing" display complete with cover art.  I've seen
several threads in the past on this forum asking for these capabilities.
Having the touch screen seems like more a "nice to have" feature, that
is, I can walk up to the device and control it, if that's most
convenient - such as when I can't seem to locate my remote, and my
controller is at the other end of the house ;-)
In addition, the color screen allows it to double as a digital picture
frame (if desired).  I could see this device taking the place of my SB3
on my living room side-table.  I don't know about the practicality of
playing music from a memory card, or about the rumored ability of this
product to be a slimmed-down squeezecenter server... don't know if these
are parts of the actual feature set, or just hopes/wishes/guesses of
those on the forums anxiously waiting to see what this thing really is!
