Assuming it will work the same as all existing "devices", your Windows PC will have its own PID and when you download to your PC from Amazon you will need to choose the target "device" which in this case is your PC. So far, all DRMed Kindle ebooks are targeted to a single device (i.e. they contain only one PID).

If we can discover the Kindle PID for a Windows PC, then for most ebooks the standard 6 device limit allows you to "read" the ebook on both your Touch and on the Windows PC. So just download it to your PC and strip the DRM using the Windows PID.
