it usually means the writer is referring to both the 250 and the 350 at the same time and wanted to save some keystrokes.

isx50 is sometimes used to generically refer to all models of the IS instead of writing each model out. The "x" is either a "3" or "2."

I was wondering the same thing for the longest time so instead of getting flamed for creating a thread, I asked a moderator on here and he explained it to me.
But yea...you're not alone in not knowing at first what it meant.

I wonder what it will be called when the 460/500 is revealed?
I think we should simply title it 2IS (for second generation).
