$120 is a very nice price reduction. 

Whether the Classic is for you or you should wait for the Touch depends
on your priorities and is a question only you can answer. 

The Classic would be a good choice if:

- you're on a budget,
- you're a casual listener and just want access to internet radio
and music files on your computer,
- you don't feel compelled to have the newest version of something,
- you're happy with a simple remote (or other external interface)
and don't need to see album art,
- you don't want access to external USB drives direct from the
unit.

The Touch sounds like it'd be better if:

- Sound is important. Beta testers report the Touch's sound quality
is better than the Classic and may eliminate the need for external DACs
and other mods many Classic users pursue.
- The Touch does more. It can access an external USB drive without a
server.
- The Touch has a nice interface and display screen.
- The Touch will natively play higher resolution files. 

There are other differences, but the above will give you a starting
framework.
