Before I bite the bullet and gamble on a Ricoh R1/GR1 or something, I figured I'd ask the hive mind if there are any other truly pocketable 35mm p&s cameras to consider.

I'm after something to slip into my back pocket while out of the house with a fixed focal length.

XA? Mju? Anything else?

I'd definitely recommend the Olympus XA series. I have an XA2 that I can slip into oretty much any pocket.
 
I always had lovely results from my Minox 35, be sure to buy one of the later models which are more reliable and use modern batteries
 
I ended up grabbing a Snapic A1 when I was at the store picking up some film. That camera wasn't on my radar but meets my criteria. Maybe the exposure limitations will be fun to work with, maybe it'll be trash, guess I'll find out!
