If you sideload firmware 2.3.2 be very careful, there are two different types of Kobo Touch, one uses the Touch firmware and the other uses the Glo/Mini firmware. I don't know how to tell which is which, maybe someone else can help with that. (I have a Glo only).

You use the Glo/Mini firmware for the Glo and Mini (obviously), but also for the newest Touches. I'm not exactly sure which are new and which are "old" Touches, but I suspect the new Touch is the one released at the same time as the Glo/Mini.
However, I do not know how to distinguish between new and 'old' Touch. Of course, if you bought a Touch after the release date of the new Touch, it doesn't mean you have the new Touch because the store might have had a stock of old ones... So, you'll only be safe with manually installing Touch firmware if you had your Touch long before the Glo/Mini/new Touch were released OR you know how to distinguish between new and old Touch.
Interesting btw, that 2.3.2 is a bug release but only available for Japan. I was wondering about why 2.3.2 wasn't pushed to me. It's completely beyond me why a bug release, which is obviously needed by everyone, is only available in Japan. Tsk. (I installed 2.3.2 manually yesterday, but I'm safe because I have a Glo and the very first oldest Touch.)
