Based on that, the Touch will be around until the next models after the Mini and Glo are announced. That makes sense to me.

I strongly suspect that there will be one more firmware update and that is it - unless of course Kobo have come to their senses are realised they can write one firmware to run effectively on all three devices and keep the touch as a viable product.
Well, apparently they have come to their senses. They have stated that the Touch, Mini and Glow will share firmware.

I am surprised that they haven't release new firmware. But, as I stated before, they seem to be working to make sure it is right.
