That would be dirty pool if they did that. I say that because of the impending holiday shopping season. If some people knew that an upgrade would be available the first part of next year, they'd hold off purchasing until then. Others won't wait and will purchase now for a guaranteed gift under the tree (either a touch or something else instead).
If Apple planned to release a new touch after the iPhone backlog was remedied, it's best not to reveal that fact to the public. It would hurt touch sales over the holiday.
