Looking at the comments, I think this one has it about right as to what Apple WILL do:

There are many good points here. Yet, let's look at what Apple is doing. Specifically, iTunes in the cloud & iTunes Match & iOS 5.
I would love a 128GB iTouch but I don't see that happening with iTunes in the cloud.
This is my best guess:
Built-in 3G: Feeds iTunes in the Cloud Purchases
Improved Camera: iCloud Sharing
4" Retina Display: Not a "cloud feature" more of my wish list.
16, 32, & 64GB models: I love my 4-year old 160 GB iPod Classic. BUT, I will not need nor care about capacity when iTunes Match arrives. I will enroll within five-minutes of it's availability.
Design: iPad 2 Bevelled Look. Available in Black & White. Aluminum back with ultra-tough Corning Gorilla Touch screen.
Apple may publicly state they enjoy the 'problem' of their products "cannibalizing" one another but the fact is: Cannibalization is a myth. Any device is an introduction to the worlds most seamless post-pc-ecosystem.

I think Apple is going to want to make iCloud important to the iTouch experience. Getting kids to put their music and photos into Apple's cloud is going to be yet another way of way of locking them into the Apple ecosystem. I'm betting no bigger screen, but a bigger battery( need more juice for streaming and 3G)
