Craig, I don't have an iPod Touch but I agree With others who have said they end up mainly using their primary device with the latest technology when they have more than one device. Keeping devices updated with the latest version of apps and iOS requires a good bit of administrative time and I prefer to devote that time to one device. Sieghard also makes an excellent point about the latest Touch being old technology. These devices cost a considerable amount of money and new apps are always taking advantage of the latest technology so hardware updates are unavoidable. My wallet prefers that I'm only having to update one device. My available admin time also prefers this.
Good luck with your decision.
