Subject: [Leica] OT: Baby Rollei Advice

Sorry for the OT, but I saw Mark's offer of 127 film FS, so...

There's a local auction I'm planning to attend tomorrow in which a "Rollie 
4x4" will be for sale, which I believe to be the same as a Baby 
Rollei.  (?)  It's supposed to be in decent shape, and I'll have the chance 
to play with it, check the lenses, hear how the shutter sounds, etc, before 
bidding.

I don't know much about these, and I haven't found much info on the web, 
and very few for sale.  Any advice as to what it might be worth or anything 
specific to this camera that I should check?  Also, I see B&H sells some 
C41 and E6 film...does that mean there are still commercial places that 
will develop 127?  I'd been assuming I'd be restricted to B&W at home.

Thanks,
Aaron
