Me too. I use the Instax printer already and so this looks like a fun way of using the films too. Heck, if it's no good then I have a younger generation mourning the loss of Lomos here in Portland (aka Hipster town) so they'll lap it up.
Btw, also I feel that it's important to support folks like MINT too. I just bought a SLR670a just to stick it to the killers of Polaroid (and support the Impossible guys).
Good luck with it! The SLR670a is my favorite Polaroid in use now. 600 speed film is so much handier than 150 speed film, and I think Impossible Project manages the 600 speed emulsions a little more consistently.
I'm shooting some 600 Color version 3 beta film right now. It is excellent! Almost completely light-proof out of the camera, reasonably quick to start processing, and significantly more consistent speed with better colors than anything previous.
Btw, very sad that there isn't a digital TLR option. I just invested in the XF with my MFDB to get the WLF. That is such as game changer and I fear that we forget about the advantages that historically have been attributed to waist level finders and shooting from the chest/waist.
Now I'm just frustrated waiting for my delayed WLF to arrive. I may have to get myself a Rollei or Mamiya TLR anyways for posterity. Which reminds me that my late father shot thousands of shots using a Yashica TLR that I promised and need to scan for my siblings and later generations.

I'd like a WLF for the Leica SL too. Actually, it's not hard to do ... All I need is a gizmo to fit my iPhone flat and pointed up into the hot shoe mount, then I can connect to the camera via WiFi using the
Leica SL app and I have my WLF. I set the SL into my "SWC" user profile (square format crop, B&W, with lens profile set to the Super-Elmar-R 15mm) and it really becomes a very good emulation of a Hasselblad SWC. Just shoot at f/5.6 instead of f/11 and the DoF/FoV coupling is quite similar.
... Of course, the SWC is normally an eye-level camera. ;-)
