A couple of possibilities:
1. That's all they make for film these days.
2. You blundered onto a leftover April Fool's site.

Are you joking? Those are all cameras specifically sold for lomography
enthusiasts. They each have features used by people who like this
genre.
Just checked: Flickr has 11882 lomo-related *groups*, and over a million
and a half photos tagged "lomo". So yes, they're fairly popular in
certain circles.

I think that some of them (photos) look pretty nice, and some of my
friends have taken great photos with them. I suspect that the sense of
achievement that must come with getting any correctly exposed frames at
all must account for some of the appeal.
