Get Kindle 4 or wait for possible Kindle Touch in UK?

So I'm in the UK and Amazon have released the new Kindle here, however there is no sign of the Kindle Touch ever being released, Amazon say "stay tuned" which is the same thing they say about the Kindle DX in the UK.

I'm quite desperate to get a new eBook reader after my Cybook Opus' screen broke and Bookeen wanted to charge the price of the new Kindle to have it fixed...

So my dilemma is: Do I get a Basic Kindle now or do I keep waiting for an unknown period, potentially (even probably) in vain for Amazon to release the Touch? Also possible is I order the Basic and Amazon release the Touch a week later...

Basically do you good folks think Amazon are releasing the Touch to the UK within the next 6 months?

(I'm not wanting to import it as I've realised eBook readers need good warranties, if I were willing to risk it I'd wait to see the Cybook Odyssey )
