I know Americans often think that the US is the only industrialized nation in the world. But from what I understand, I think China thinks very much in the same manner, and in Cantonese, China is often referred to as the center of the universe, or more literally, the central nation. In any case, I don't think the U.S. is the only country that Fenix ships to, though they probagly make the fattest profit margins from the U.S. What they don't ship to the U.S., they may ship to other countries. And last I heard, there were retail vendors in the U.S. that still sold the L1.
But just to give merit to the rumors, it's also not uncommon for a Chinese manufacturer to fully abandon a line of products once they move on to the next generation. And that can apply to US companies with manufacturing facilities in China (anyone try to get a Gen 3 iPod fixed lately?)

What's with the hostility? You need to calm down. You also need to notice that the Fenix site still lists the original L1 including the silver body one; so much for them being up to date.
