They can't sell what they don't have, or blow the street date. Expecting them to sell the Glo first is like expecting Amazon to sell the Paperwhite in the UK before the US, just because Amazon opened up UK sales for the Kindle Fire recently.

I think the point is that it would be less horrible for people to launch the Touch at the same time as the Glo... The way it is now, first nothing was available, now the Touch is available. People get excited and buy a Touch, then a few weeks later surprise surprise, the Glo comes out, pissing everyone who bought a Touch off.
That's just not nice at all. They should at least advertise that the Glo is coming soon. Otherwise, they should have kept the Touch in the basement until the Glo was there to sell as well, to give people a choice.
