Question

Does the Push Notification Service work on an iPod Touch?

Answer 1

The iPod touch does support push notifications. There is something to know though.

from the developer portal

What Are Push Notifications?

Important: WiFi is used for push notifications only if there is no cellular connection or if the device is an iPod touch. To receive notifications via Wi-Fi, the device’s display must be on (that is, it cannot be sleeping) or it must be plugged in.

This applies to both the iPhone and the iPod touch.

Hope that helps.
