Do you guys know why fortigate 90e was removed from the line?

This is part of the Atom CM2000 series clock defect.  It is/will impact MANY products from MANY manufacturers.  The rumor is that Intel is forcing vendors to sign NDAs and compensating them in some way to replace the defective hardware. More people need to be made aware as this is going to hit a lot of folks who don't pay attention in a bad way over the next few years.  I just deployed a 90E at my daughter's school so I'm not happy about the situation.

FortiGate 90E/91E is back in the mid-Q3 2017 price list with a note to call for availability.

 

Remember the 90E/91E is CPU based only with no SOC. The SOC3 is in the 60E/61E and 80E/81E.
