Actually the same terms as RoHS are being enforced in some states, despite that RoHS is a EU directive, also in certain countries in Asia and in Australia.
All new Sun hardware sold since June of this year is RoHS, or has received a partial exemption to allow time for suitable alternatives to be found. For example Sun was unable to comply with some aspects of the lead free part of the directive on certain chips in time. Now that being said Sun may still be selling old stock of non-RoHS hardware at a reduced price to markets where this is allowed, but the intention is to not have two supply chains.
