I think you made the right call, they're getting harder to find now. I made the mistake of selling my first one and bought another one later on. It's already a classic and I don't think that will ever change. It might not be the fastest compared to newer cameras but I really have no complaints with it, the focusing is perfectly adequate speed wise for me, and it does give a rather lovely rendering to the images it produces, as well as having a sublime lens on it. I'm sure the newer models are great, but there's just something about the mk1, it's simple to use and operate, no fancy frills to get in the way, it just does what it needs to do with minimal fuss. I have a fondness for the older Fuji models that I don't get with the newer ones, good though they are, I guess I just prefer simplicity over speed and bells and whistles. Enjoy your repaired X100, you'll love it, it's a gem.
