Typically, it is very hard to picture the difference in sensor measurements only by looking through technical specs. The photograph here will help provide you a much better sense of the sensor sizing in the Touch and TG-860.

As you have seen, both cameras posses different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The Touch having a smaller sensor is going to make getting shallow DOF more challenging and the Olympus TG-860 will provide you with extra detail with its extra 2MP. Greater resolution will let you crop pics somewhat more aggressively. The older Touch will be disadvantaged with regard to sensor tech.
