Sell EOS-M to get Sony RX100?

Ever since the RX100 came out and got stellar reviews, I"ve been following it. It's recently dropped in price a bit and my wife is willing to let me get one but ONLY IF I am willing to part with my EOS-M.

My recent purchase of an SL1 was already making the EOS-M a tad redundant, so I am considering this trade off.

My plan was to keep my EOS-M with just the 22mm without building out the system, basically using it as a fixed-lens camera (a crop sensor RX1, if you will). This combo did wonderfully during a vacation earlier this year, and has been very reliable, and I enjoy the 35mm equivalent FOV. The only things I feel are lacking is I wish the AF was a tad faster sometimes, and I do miss a zoom lens at times as well.

I recently got a chance to borrow a RX100 and shoot it for a day, and I was impressed. The stuff about the excellent IQ seems legit. To my eyes in my usage (which I guess is all that matters) the EOS-M does have a slight advantage in IQ, and about a 1-stop advantage in low light (I'd probably only shoot up to ISO 1600 on the RX100, on the EOS-M it's 3200 easy).

What the RX100 has going for it is obvious - zoom lens, built-in flash, and the AF seemed a bit snappier.

What I was really surprised by and gave the RX100 a big advantage was the compactness. I didn't think it would make that much of a difference from the EOS-M over a day's shooting, but it did. To me the EOS-M, even with the 22mm, is not a pocketable camera. And because of it's weight, I don't feel comfortable with it on a wriststrap either (tends to swing around too much, so I'm worried about it bumping something). It's a small bag/shoulder strap type of camera, albeit an amazingly small one. The RX100 was pocketable in my jeans, and carrying it around all day on a wriststrap was a piece of cake.

So there it is. That's my thought process so far. I know this forum will probably sway Canon, but I still would like to hear opinions.

TL;DR - Deciding between EOS-M /22mm vs Sony RX100. EOS-M has IQ advantage, RX100 has size advantage. Just got SL1 so EOS-M may be a bit redundant.

Well, did you buy the RX100 ?

You should definitely go with the RX100. You said yourself that the EOS M is completely redundant with your SL1.
I think the main point of the EOS M is for compact use that can use your EF lenses.
You can always pocket the Sony and bring your SL1.

No, got the S110 for now, actually pretty impressed with the photos that come out of that little camera. Still waiting for a better deal on the RX100
