It all depends on what your predilection in lenses dictates you're going 
to use more. If you're more apt to use 50-135mm lenses, the .85x model is 
more useful. If you're going to be using a 35 or 28mm lens in conjunction 
with your 75 a lot, go with the .72x. 75 and 90mm framelines are easy to 
use in either, and the rangefinder is certainly accurate enough for 
either. If you feel you'll be using a 135 more of the time, then wait for 
the .85x model to come in.
