I'd definitely wait for Gamescom. I recently upgraded to a 320gb slim from an aging, refurbed 60gb system, and it was a great decision. It's much quieter, much cooler, more reliable (I assume), and uses less power. Plus, it has a much better wi-fi NIC. I am now able to stream content from my PC while being simultaneously connected to PSN via wi-fi, something I could only do through a wired connection before. I've gotten upwards of 1MBps download speeds with wi-fi on the slim, a figure I think was only limited by Sony's slow servers.
I assume the new slims will match or best the old slims in most ways, so you can't go wrong waiting.
