Nokia has confirmed that it is no longer going to produce the N810 WiMax Edition tablet. A company official told Phone Scoop, "The Nokia N810 WiMax Edition has reached the expected end of its lifecycle. We will continue to follow the WiMax network development and new product decisions will be considered based on the evolution of the business." The tablet had been developed, in part, to support the Sprint/Clearwire WiMax network being built in the U.S. Nokia didn't eloborate why the device reached its "end of life" just as the WiMax networks are coming online.
