I'll start referring to mine as a Rollei 35X. Also I'll start telling people 
mine is a limited edition, now rare, from an original production run of ONLY 
30000. Once I get enough buzz going, I'll post it on eBay, and then be able to 
afford a an S!

:  )

My X just got a cleaning and new felt installed around the lens barrel. It's a 
fine camera by all means. In a pinch though, my Olympus Trip 35 does very very 
good work, and that I paid $5 for.
