I was fortunate to easily establish a wired connection when initially
setting up my Touch (at my office).  But I bought the Touch for use at
my apartment where I have no computer or internet connection. I wanted
to simply play from a USB disk drive. 

I would hope that future versions of the software make the Touch less
reliant on calling home (or whatever it's doing on the internet).
