I was waiting for the 27mm pancake, and when it arrived I was likely going to buy the X-E1 (I already have the XPro1 with the 18, 35, and 60). But then the X100s was announced. That sealed my decision... The X100s with its 23/2 rather than the XE1 with the 27. The X100s does everything the XE1/27 kit does, and IMO does it better (more compact, faster lens, faster focus, and VF choice). 🙂
