A ton of the apps are crap, and the signal to noise ratio for finding great apps is all over the map. That said, once you find a decent core set of utilities, info apps, etc, its very handy. The lack of demos for the pay apps can be really frustrating - it sucks pruning your app collection when you have an app you'll never use again but paid money for.

If you can hold off just a little longer, see if the Touch gets any major hardware revamps in the coming months - lots of rumors swirling about the new iPhone hardware, and Apple may not keep parity between the Touch and the iPhone, but I believe they will keep it close to avoid splintering the app store market.

Being able to buy music directly on the touch can be a really nice way of treating yourself on a friday afternoon stuck in an otherwise quiet office.

You don't need demo's when you can get any app you want for free using the internet thingy.
