After the issues the DS has had with its touchscreen, Apple would be crazy to try and rework the iPod like that. Then again, I always thought they were crazy to get rid of the original wheel, so maybe they would go for it.

Issues the DS has had? You mean none?...The DS works perfectly fine.

I agree. And who wants oily fingerprints all over a screen? But who knows...
As for the wheel, I think it's a good thing they moved away from a real wheel. Less moving parts IMHO is a good thing.

I used the touch screen on a Palm as part of a study. It used a stylus, annoying at times.

Cracks, smudges, scratches, and such. These all tended to arise from improper use of the touch screen: applying too much pressure, failing to use the stylus or thumb strap, and things like that. But those misuses of the touch screen are generally the most intuitive ways of dealing with such a thing, particularly when previous generations of the product have all fostered such use. Would you want to use a thumb strap just to roll the click wheel around?
Note that I'm as much of a DS fan as anyone else, and I'm careful to use my touch screen properly. When you do, it works great, and it really does make for better games. But the very things which make a touchscreen practical in a gaming portable make it impractical in a device like the iPod.
