If you use the s3x don't use a freewheel, it that's what you want just use an AW or other 3 speed hub.
BUT- A really nice commuter set up would be the s3x hub, particularly if you ride flat or rolling hills on Multi use paths and crowded bike lanes. The control of a fixed gear makes riding in traffic, bicycle or other, much more tolerable and the 3 available gears on the s3x give you a pretty good range.
