I am fortunate to have both and it is a really tough call. And the more I use X70, the tougher it gets. The touch screen is really liberating and addictive. I don't understand the complaints about lack of EVF. The camera is designed to be used with tilting screen with touch mode enabled. You just need to adjust your thinking about it. And once you do, everything falls into place and makes sense.

X100T for me is for a more deliberate photography and the synergy of its design creates a sort of magic that I can't replicate with X-E2. X70 is a more utilitarian tool and more useful for casual situations and travel. It also has its own magic but it is different from x100T and also can't be replicated with X-E2. It is ideal if you can have both X100T and X70.

One thing to consider is that if X200 materializes in the near future, prices for X100T would drop so it might be a good long-term plan to get X70 now and then pick up X100T at a lower price.

Ideally, you should handle both before making the final decision.

Fortunately, you can't go wrong with either. Just review your requirements and pick one that fits better.
