Touchscreen on Kindle... After reading some of Sony Reader Touch's reviews, all I see is a number of immediate drawbacks (reflective, prone to smearing surface, decreased typing speed, some response issues, concerns about screen damage, etc) with no real advantages or productivity benefits to speak of.
Naturally, I'm all for significantly improved PDF rendering (custom zoom, font options, etc), Kindle 3-like visual redesign, updated collection system (e.g., subdirectories), enhanced Unicode and custom font support, and obviously, built-in Wi-Fi adapters. If they do most of this, I'll have no problem buying the new DX at the current price.
