One of the things I love most about my Touch is its size so I don't think I'm tempted by either the HD or the H20.

I have two concerns about getting the Aura based on what I've read here: The screen quality (how does it compare to the Touch?) and the non-capacitative screen. That last one is a major deterrent for me living in the frosty Midwest (it was 11 degrees this morning). I know they sell special gloves and I have a pair but they are not warm at all so it's a moot point. I may end up passing on the upgrade and just sticking with my beloved Touch.
At the risk of sailing waaaay offpoint, I have this neat jacket that has half gloves (there's a place for your thumb). Helps when typing. My fingers are exposed, but I can curl the cuffs over my hands/thumb and keep my hands warmer. It's also merino wool (It's a minus 33 brand) so it's nice. I'm not advocating you buy the aura or anything, I'm just sitting here in my wool jacket thingie and 11 sounds...frosty.
