Lots of excellent advice and evaluations above. Any, and all of the bikes you mentioned will be really good at one of the most important functions of a first touring bike. That is to educate and inform you so that you have a better idea what you want/need in a touring bike. Which ever bike you choose, you will learn about the bike, and about what you want in a bike. A quick look at the variety of bikes people use for touring indicates that bike choice is a very personal issue. Also, it may well be that the ideal touring bike is an unachievable goal; worthy, nonetheless.
Good luck.
