75mm Summicron no longer listed on Leica Site

[Broke]

Hello all -- I've been pondering the possibility of getting ahold of one of these (at the expense of a kidney). I noticed today the lens is no longer listed on the Leica US site. Has there been an announcement of its cancellation? Has anyone heard tell of this.
Cheers,
Jim

Also 'gone' are the Noctilux and 35 Summilux ... at least on the US leica site - as reported yesterday on l-camera.forum .

But all is well on the UK and German sites

Probably nothing to worry about

My German made 75mm 'lux is the jewel of my lens collection.

There have been some error in the previous descriptions of the lens as with the advent of the M9 the editor simply exchanged M8 with M9. Thus there were wrong coments regarding crop etc. I guess someone is now simply updating the lens descriptions.

Its back up... I like this description:

"The focal length extension factor of the digital rangefinder camera turns the compact lens into a powerful telephoto lens with a focal length of 100 mm, making it an ideal partner of ambitious Leica M9 photographers."

Even they're confused about crop factors hehe.
