Subject: [Leica] Use 135mm Anymore?

Over the years, it seems that the popularity of zoom lens, particularly
in the 70-200 zoom range has taken over the use of the 135mm prime
lenses.  I have heard very little discussion regarding 135mm lenses, M
and R, here.  Do people on this list still use the 135mm lenses
anymore?  

I enjoy using the 135mm focal length for general landscape shots very
much.  I usually take a three-lens combination, 24, 35 and 135, for
general photo outings.  I am interested to hear how others use their
135mm focal lens.  I plan to get a 135mm R lens and would like to hear
others' advice on the lens.  Thanks in advance!
