Does the newest iPod Touch make any sense?

Curious.

The newest  16GB iPod Touch ($229) costs more than the Nexus 7 tablet with 16GB ($199) and costs the same as a refurbished 4th generation 64GB iPod Touch ($229).

This iPod Touch is different than the other (current generation) iPod Touch devices -- no rear-facing camera -- which makes a comparison with the Nexus 7 and the 4th generation iPod Touch.

What would you buy?

I know that even if I didn't have a smart phone, I'd take the Nexus 7, because it was far more versatile than a device with a 4" screen.  But if I was an Apple fan, I'd take the refurbished 4th generation iPod Touch, because 64GB means I'd be able to load it up with music and never have to worry about being in WiFi range.
