That could work, but it could be very confusing:
  • Kindle WiFi
  • Kindle WiFi Touch
  • Kindle 3G+WiFi
  • Kindle 3G+WiFi Touch
  • (I know that DX does not have a WiFi model yet, but I think that it's inevitable)
  • Kindle DX WiFi
  • Kindle DX WiFi Touch
  • Kindle DX WiFi+3G
  • Kindle DX WiFi+3G Touch

A more practical solution would be to offer a "Touch" edition only in the premium models. For example, you cannot get a white Kindle WiFi; you have to pay $50 for the 3G. Similarly, they could make it so that only the 3G model could support touch.
