Given your style of photography Jim, I think Don's suggestion of the XA is a better bet. I'm sure you've found this link already:
http://www.ph.utexas.edu/~yue/misc/rangfndr.html The Rollei stuff is about 3/4 of the way down. Note in particular "To call the Rollei 35's design eccentric, is an under statement."

Having spent many pleasurable hours studying your work over the time you've been a member, I think the non-coupled rangefinder and subsequent dial-in the distance on the focus ring really would hamper your style of shooting.
